Sumario:This book sets out how to ensure that adaptation efforts are socially and environmentally sustainable, contributing to poverty reduction as well as confronting the processes driving vulnerability. Over 100bn a year is pledged to help finance adaptation projects via the The Climate Adaptation Fund. These projects and their funding played a central role in the latest climate talks in Cancun, Mexico, ensuring that adaptation to climate change will be an international priority over the next few decades. Many existing adaptation projects are however, not environmentally or socially sustainable.
Notas:Gums and resins: The potential for supporting sustainable adaptation in Kenya's drylandsThe discourse of adaptation to climate change and the UK Climate Impacts Programme: De-scribing the problematization of adaptation.
