Economics of Climate Adaptation (ECA)

In Maharashtra, a large state in central India that is home to nearly 100 million people, agriculture accounts for 60 percent of employment, most of it in small-scale and marginal farming. But the region’s agriculture depends on rainfall for much of its water supply, and even a small dip in precipitation can put millions of people’s food security at risk. In a drought year, a third of the state’s food grain production may be lost, with severe impact on the small-scale farmers– most of whom have no reserves to see them through lean years. Climate change could worsen these losses significantly within a generation. For example, scenario analysis in this report suggests droughts that historically have occurred once every 25 years might now take place as frequently as every 8 years.

Government of Niue

While it is anticipated that most nations will ultimately suffer the adverse consequences from climate change, Niue remains one of the most vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change and as such faces the most dire and immediate consequences.

Platform for Agrobiodiversity Research

Agro biodiversity, or agricultural biodiversity, includes all the components of biological diversity of relevance to food and agriculture, as well as the components of biological diversity that constitute the agro-ecosystem: the variety and variability of animals, plants and micro-organisms, at the genetic, species and ecosystem levels, which sustain the functions, structure and processes of the agro-ecosystem.

Melanesia is one of the richest biotic regions on the planet. Although consisting of slightly more than half of one percent of the earth’s land area, Melanesia contains a high percentage of the Earth’s terrestrial and marine biodiversity. Numerous studies have indicated that the island of New Guinea (the country of Papua New Guinea and Indonesia’s Papua province) and its associated archipelagos, and the major Melanesian islands (located in the countries of Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Fiji, and the French Pacific territory of New Caledonia) are major global priorities for conservation (Olsen and Diner stein 20021 ; Wikramanayake et al. 2002; Mittermeier et al. 2003; Mittermeier et al. 2005). Melanesia’s conservation priorities include species and habitat protection as well as the continued provision of ecosystem services to local and global communities that depend on them. How regional climate change resulting from anthropogenic global warming will affect biodiversity in Melanesia is therefore a critical subject for examination with far reaching implications.
