Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation
Keywords:
vulnerability, adaptation, mitigation, greenhouse gases, global warming.Abstract
In recent decades, change in climate have caused impacts on natural and human systems on all continents and across the oceans. In many regions, changing precipitation or melting snow and ice are altering hydrological systems, affecting water resources in terms of quantity and quality.
Many terrestrial and freshwater species have shifted their geographic ranges, seasonal activities, migration patterns, abundances, and species interactions in response to ongoing climate change.
According on many studies provided from researchers and NGO`s in many reports and national agreements, covering a wide range of regions and crops, negative impacts of climate change on crop yields have been observed, such as non-climatic factors like inequalities and poverty which are increasing the vulnerability and exposure of poor, and also the effects from recent climate-related extremes, such as heat waves, droughts, floods, cyclones, and wildfires, reveal significant vulnerability and exposure of some ecosystems and many human systems to current climate variability.
Thus adaptation and mitigation are the required tools to prevent the universe from climate change effects.
