Education’s Crucial Role in Community Climate Change Adaptation
Education can create climate adaptive and resilient people. Illiteracy hinders progress as people tend to find it hard to change their ideas.
Climate Resilience Using Green and Grey Solutions
Coastal towns and Conservation International help communities build an innovative approach to climate resilience – green and grey solutions.
Maximising Forest Capacity as Carbon Offsets
Mixed-species forests can be achieved by establishing certification schemes for tree plantings that meet minimum biodiversity standards.
Are Illiteracy and Culture Barriers to Climate Adaptation?
Climate change will be harder on the uneducated because illiteracy and lack of education prevent people from changing their ways.
How  South American Farmers are Adapting to Climate Change
Latin America's climate, such as rainfall patterns, rising temperatures, and weather storm severity, is changing. Farmers are adapting.
Decarbonising Electricity by Upscaling Floatovoltaics
The solar power industry makes it the most preferred renewable energy source. Scaling it up will decarbonise more the electricity sector.
Why Ecosystem-based Adaptation is an Excellent Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Option
Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) is gaining ground in fighting climate change, especially in developing and vulnerable countries.
Are Plant-Based Protein Sustainable Solutions for Emissions Reduction?
The IPCC Sixth Assessment Report identifies plant-based and cultured meat as a transformative solution to halving emissions by 2030.
Climate Adaptation Using the Slow Water Approach
This post discusses the slow water approach and how cities and communities can better manage water with climate change and rapid urbanisation.
