The document discusses the challenges climate change poses to human health and opportunities for addressing it. It notes increasing threats such as water shortages affecting billions, ocean acidification, biodiversity loss, and risks of extreme heat. However, policies to transition to a low-carbon economy could yield major health benefits like reduced air pollution and provide large economic benefits exceeding abatement costs. Cities will be important to address as they contribute most greenhouse gas emissions but also offer opportunities through accessible transport, clean energy, and resilient infrastructure. Food and agriculture sectors also present opportunities to mitigate emissions and benefit health through plant-based diets and reduced food waste.

Global change Mr. Payai john
Global climate change refers to the increase in average global temperatures due to both natural events and human activities like burning fossil fuels. The document summarizes evidence of climate change like rising temperatures, sea levels, and extreme weather events. Effects include issues with food, health, and migration. The summary concludes that over the past 25 years, almost everywhere has warmed, sea levels have risen 20cm, and greenhouse gas levels are higher than in the past millions of years, showing that climate change is occurring.
Amazonia
The document summarizes climate change impacts and deforestation effects on the Amazon region's water cycle. It notes the Amazon Basin's extraordinary biodiversity but also describes increasing droughts and floods in recent decades. Deforestation levels and air temperatures are also rising in southern Amazonia. Climate and land cover changes could significantly affect both regional and global water cycles. Modeling shows deforestation impacts local and regional hydroclimatic connectivity between the Amazon and Andes. Conserving and restoring terrestrial and aquatic systems, along with scientific innovation, education, and governance strengthening, are needed to support a sustainable Amazon region.
Basics of Climate Change Science
This document summarizes a presentation on climate change science given in Almaty, Kazakhstan in August 2019. It introduces global climate change as significant long-term changes in climate parameters like temperature and weather events. A changing climate leads to more extreme weather and rapid melting of ice. Limiting climate change requires substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Graphs and maps show warming trends across global temperatures, the Northern Hemisphere, and Central Asian countries from 1901-2018. Climate change is a global challenge that affects all countries through interconnected weather systems.
Impact of Climate Change on Agriculture
Climate change is causing rising global temperatures and changes in precipitation patterns. This is impacting agriculture in India in several ways:
1) Cereal production is projected to decrease by 10-40% by 2100 due to rising temperatures, with wheat production decreasing by 4-5 million tons for every 1C rise in temperature.
2) Increased droughts and floods will make agricultural production more variable from year to year.
3) Rising sea levels could cause loss of land for agriculture and flooding in coastal areas.
Climate Change - An African Perspective
This document discusses the impacts of climate change from an African perspective according to the IPCC special reports from 2018-2019. It notes that parts of Africa have already warmed over 1.5°C and are experiencing more frequent and intense climate extremes like drought and heavy rainfall. These changes are damaging ecosystems through biodiversity loss, desertification, and threats to habitats like oases, high mountains, and coral reefs. The document also outlines societal impacts like increased poverty and vulnerabilities for people living in drylands, coastlands, and cities in sub-Saharan Africa. Limiting warming to 1.5°C would significantly reduce these risks but require transitioning all parts of society including energy systems, land use, infrastructure,

Andersen oxford2011
The document summarizes climate change impacts on biodiversity, ecosystem services, and global food supply. It discusses how climate change threatens 15-37% of species with extinction by 2100 through impacts like increased temperatures and altered hydrologic cycles. These changes to ecosystems in turn impact services like water availability and wildfire regimes. Regarding food, the document notes climate change could lead to crop failures in Africa and other regions, exacerbating issues of land and resource pressures to support a growing population. Adaptation will be needed to ensure a sustainable global food supply.
Media role in climate change and disaster risk reduction
The document discusses the impacts of climate change and increasing urbanization. It notes that global climate change and increasing urbanization will require four Earths to sustain human needs by 2100 if no changes are made. It then discusses observed trends in climate change for India such as increasing temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, rising sea levels, and glacier recession. The document also examines the concepts of vulnerability, exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity in the context of climate change impacts. Finally, it proposes several adaptation strategies for rural and urban areas, including improved agricultural practices, drought-proofing measures, and sustainable water management.
Climate change ,adaptation and mitigation in fisheries
The document discusses climate change impacts on fisheries and aquaculture. It notes that climate change affects these industries through ocean acidification, changes in sea temperatures and currents, and more extreme weather events. These changes impact fish populations and habitats, causing shifts in distribution and productivity. They also affect fishing and aquaculture operations through changes in costs, productivity and safety. The impacts vary regionally, with tropical areas expected to see larger declines in fish catch potential than temperate regions. Adaptation strategies are needed to help these industries adjust to the changes.
Climate change & migration
This document discusses climate change and migration. It defines key terms like climate, climate change, and environmental migrants. It explores the nexus between climate change and migration and identifies three types: labor migration, distress migration, and managed retreat. It discusses climate event hotspots and the associated types of migration. The document also outlines relevant global policies from the UN including sustainable development goals focused on climate change adaptation and migration. Finally, it proposes a 5-step approach to managing climate-induced migration through prevention, preparation, assistance, mitigation of impacts, and addressing long-term challenges.
Water Systems and security
The document summarizes key findings from the IPCC's Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate. It finds that glaciers and snow cover are declining rapidly around the world, including in regions like Europe, Africa, South America and Asia. This is increasing hazards like floods and landslides. Peak water levels in glacier-fed rivers have already passed or will pass by mid-century in many areas. This will significantly impact downstream water supply for billions of people. Adaptation measures are needed to help communities adjust and ensure sustainable water resources in a warming world. Limiting warming to 1.5C compared to 2C could help reduce these risks.
Presentation on climate change by dr. tahmina afrose
The document discusses the impacts of climate change on coastal systems and communities. It notes that sea level rise, increased storm intensity, and changes in weather patterns will exacerbate erosion, damage infrastructure, and displace coastal plant and animal communities. Vulnerable areas include densely populated mega deltas, coral reefs, and small islands. Adaptation strategies discussed include protecting coastal zones, accommodating rising seas through land use planning, and developing financial protections like insurance. The document emphasizes the need for coordinated global action to mitigate further climate change through measures like reducing greenhouse gas emissions and transitioning to renewable energy sources.
Impacts of a Changing Climate on Animal Agriculture
Weather and climate have both short-term and long-term impacts on livestock development and management. This talk will focus on longer-term trends in climate and drought over time across the United States and the impacts of changes in these factors on animal agriculture. We will start by examining the trends in temperature and precipitation that have occurred over different regions of the US over the past century and how they have varied from one area to another. Then we will look at how future climate is predicted and problems in making useful predictions. We will follow that by looking at some of the most reliable predictions of future climate and discuss the potential impacts on livestock health, forage and feed supply, and farm management practices and the importance of resilience in farm practices. We will conclude by identifying both the challenges and the opportunities for future livestock producers in a changing climate.

1) The report involved over 1,200 authors from over 90 countries and drew on over 12,000 scientific references. It underwent extensive review by over 50,000 comments from 1,700 reviewers from 84 countries.
2) The report finds that climate change poses a serious threat to sustainable development, but there are opportunities to link mitigation, adaptation and development goals through integrated responses. Delaying mitigation actions may reduce future adaptation options.
3) Key risks from climate change include risks to unique ecosystems, extreme weather events, unevenly distributed
Impacts of Climate Change
The document summarizes impacts of climate change including rising global temperatures, sea levels, and shifts in ecosystems. Continued carbon emissions are expected to lead to more warming, melting of ice sheets and glaciers, and sea level rise of several meters over centuries. This poses risks to coastal cities and islands. Certain tipping points such as thawing permafrost and collapse of the West Antarctic ice sheet could have irreversible consequences if crossed. Urgent action is needed to reduce carbon emissions according to the IPCC.
Sustainability - What's wrong with a little climate change?
You may have heard about the dangers of “global warming and climate change”. It’s like old news. It hardly get you concerned. Well, there are some recent findings. Our Earth is getting warmer, wetter, wilder and more crowded than ever. It's scaring the hell out of scientists.
Entendiendo la Ciencia del Cambio Climático - Dr. Rajendra Kumar Pachauri
The document summarizes key findings from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) regarding the science and impacts of climate change. The IPCC AR5 involved thousands of scientists and reviewed over 9,000 scientific publications. It concludes that human influence has been the dominant cause of observed warming since the mid-20th century, and that limiting climate change will require substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. The report also finds that climate change impacts are projected to slow economic growth and exacerbate poverty, especially in developing countries. Adaptation and mitigation strategies that incorporate sustainable development can help address these challenges.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CLIMATE CHANGE AND ENERGY; THE CASE OF GHANA. DISCUSS.
Climate change is the gradual, long-term alteration of worldwide weather patterns, especially increases in temperature and storm activity, attributable to the increased accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This increases the temperature of the earth and carries with it a series of repercussions for the environment. The earth’s atmospheric temperature is maintained by greenhouse gases, whose duty is to form an insulating blanket around the earth and regulate the amount of solar radiation that stays in its atmosphere. Chief among these gases are water vapour (most abundant), carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O). These occur naturally. Human-made additions include chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydro chlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) and hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). Nitrogen (78%) and oxygen (21%) are the two most abundant gases of the earth’s atmospheric cover by volume percent but have properties that restrict infrared absorption. The greenhouse gases that make up less than a percentage of the earth’s atmospheric composition are the culprits in global warming. The role of greenhouse gases is profound. The sun is the primary source of heat to the earth. The solar spectrum is a collection of radiant energy forms that are partly absorbed by the earth. X-ray, infrared, gamma, visible light and ultraviolet radiation all are emitted from the sun.
Climate change Impacts
Climate change is already causing impacts such as rising global temperatures, sea level rise, and more extreme weather events. Many models predict these changes will intensify in the coming decades and severely impact natural systems and human communities through increased wildfires, shifting agricultural patterns, and displacement from rising seas. Understanding past climate shifts and carefully planning adaptation and mitigation can help minimize harm from the ongoing and inevitable impacts of climate change.
Unit 3
This document discusses several impacts of climate change, including rising global temperatures, melting ice caps and glaciers, and rising sea levels. It notes that temperatures have increased 0.8 degrees Celsius since 1880, with most warming occurring since the 1970s. Melting ice is causing sea levels to rise, threatening coastal communities and habitats. Climate change is also negatively impacting agriculture, forests, ecosystems, water resources and human health through increased droughts, floods and disease. Key industries and societies face vulnerabilities from extreme weather events and limited ability to adapt to rapid climate change.
Children's_environmental_health_climate-change
The document discusses the risks of climate change, especially for small island states. It outlines that greenhouse gas concentrations are rising and global temperatures have increased over the past century. Small island states face risks from sea level rise such as coastal flooding, damage to infrastructure, and salination of freshwater supplies. Climate change can also exacerbate health issues like temperature-related illness, diseases spread by food and water, and vector-borne diseases. The document calls for health ministries to assess climate change risks and work with other agencies to implement adaptation strategies.
Deepali gupta
The document discusses the risks of climate change and rising sea levels for small island states. It notes that greenhouse gas concentrations are rising, global temperatures have increased in recent decades, and sea levels are gradually accelerating. Small island states face risks from coastal flooding, amplified storm surges, salination of fresh water supplies, and impacts on agriculture and health as temperatures rise and extreme weather increases.

The document discusses the risks of climate change, especially for small island states. It outlines that greenhouse gas concentrations are rising and global temperatures have increased over the past century. Small island states face risks from sea level rise such as coastal flooding, damage to infrastructure, and salination of freshwater supplies. Climate change can also exacerbate health issues like temperature-related illness, diseases spread by food and water, and vector-borne diseases. The document calls for health ministries to assess climate change risks and work with other agencies to implement adaptation strategies.

It provides an overview of the causes and impacts of climate change, including increasing global temperatures, rising sea levels, and more extreme weather events. It also summarizes observed and projected climate trends in Nepal, such as increasing temperatures, more heavy rainfall events, and glacial retreat in the Himalayas. The role of youth in understanding and responding to climate change through adaptation efforts is emphasized.
Carbon lockin why we should free ourselves
The document discusses carbon lock-in and the challenges of transitioning to renewable energy due to existing fossil fuel infrastructure investments. It notes that while climate change poses serious threats, technologies exist to lower carbon emissions cost-effectively. However, their diffusion has been slow due to carbon lock-in effects from past policies and investments that have made economies dependent on fossil fuels. Transitioning away from these entrenched systems requires overcoming substantial inertia.
4 December - From SR15 to Synthesis Report - Global Warming of 1.5°C
This document summarizes the key findings of an IPCC special report on limiting global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. It finds that limiting warming to 1.5°C compared to 2°C would significantly reduce climate risks and impacts. However, it would require rapid and unprecedented global changes in energy, land, urban, and infrastructure systems as well as improved integration of climate measures into economic and social development. The report provides pathways for greenhouse gas emissions reductions compatible with 1.5°C of warming and highlights the need for urgent action to transition global systems to a more sustainable future.

It also outlines strategies to mitigate and adapt to global warming effects, including the Kyoto Protocol which aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Key technologies discussed are carbon capture and storage from large industrial sources, with geological storage seen as a promising option to help address the global challenge of climate change.
World health day_2008_15_vulnerability
This chapter discusses what makes individuals and populations vulnerable to the health effects of climate change. It defines vulnerability as the degree to which a system is susceptible to and unable to cope with adverse climate impacts. Vulnerability is determined by the characteristics, magnitude and rate of climate change, a population's sensitivity, and its adaptive capacity. Vulnerable groups include the elderly, women, urban residents, and those in nursing homes. Actions can be taken to reduce future health vulnerabilities from climate change.
Global climate change phenomena, impacts and adaptations
Climate change is caused by both natural and human factors. Increased levels of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide in the atmosphere from human activities like burning fossil fuels are contributing to global warming. This is causing rising surface temperatures, changing weather patterns, and more extreme climate events. Impacts are already apparent and include melting glaciers, rising sea levels, more severe droughts and hurricanes. Agriculture and food security are seriously threatened, with lower crop yields predicted. Many developing nations are most vulnerable due to greater exposure and less ability to adapt. Mitigating further climate change requires global cooperation on reducing emissions through transitioning to renewable energy and more efficient use of resources, while adapting to impacts like sea level rise and more
Climate change & its impact on health
Climate change poses new challenges for human health in the Pacific Basin. Increased extreme weather, rising temperatures and sea levels will impact the region. More intense storms, droughts, and flooding are expected. Disease transmission may change, increasing risks like dengue fever. Both mitigation of further climate change and adaptation to impacts already occurring are needed responses.

Introduction to Climate Science
The document summarizes key findings from the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report. It finds that human activity is extremely likely the dominant cause of global warming since the mid-20th century. If greenhouse gas emissions continue, the report warns of consequences like more extreme weather, water shortages, displaced populations, and impacts on food production. However, the summary also finds that limiting global temperature rise to 2°C is possible with ambitious emissions reductions, though the window for action is closing rapidly.
KVA Symposium ocean acidification Cornell 2014
This document discusses what is known about the costs of ocean acidification for future Swedish society. It notes that while little is known, enough is understood to inform policy choices. Ocean acidification is part of complex global human-caused changes and is essentially irreversible. Delaying climate change mitigation will cost more in the future than taking action now. Further research is needed on local effects within global frameworks to support precautionary and participatory policies.
Big Facts for Big Decisions
Over 850 million people worldwide are undernourished and nearly 2 billion suffer from micronutrient deficiencies. Sub-Saharan Africa has the highest rates of undernourishment at over 17% of its population, while South and East Asia also have significant populations suffering from lack of food. Global population is projected to increase from 7 billion in 2010 to over 9 billion by 2050 and 10 billion by 2100, placing additional stress on food production. Agricultural practices must adapt to climate change through strategies like improved irrigation and more resilient crop varieties, while also pursuing mitigation efforts such as restoring degraded lands, to help ensure future global food security.

The document summarizes key points from the IPCC report on the impacts of climate change. It discusses the goals of limiting warming to 1.5°C or 2°C according to the Paris Agreement and identifies risks to human health, food security, and other systems if warming surpasses these levels. Risks include increased deaths from heat waves, challenges to outdoor work as heat limits are exceeded, and threats to coastal communities from long term sea level rise. Maintaining warming at 1.5°C compared to 2°C or higher substantially reduces these risks.

This document discusses disability and health. It notes that over 1 billion people worldwide have disabilities, with 110-190 million experiencing significant difficulties. Disability can impact many areas of life, such as education, employment, social participation, and access to services. The document then examines whether people with disabilities are more likely to have poor health compared to those without disabilities. Several studies are cited that found higher odds of serious illness among people with disabilities in various countries. Possible reasons for this link between disability and poor health are explored, such as poverty, vulnerability, exclusion from healthcare access, and higher healthcare needs among those with disabilities. Barriers to accessing healthcare like inaccessible infrastructure and transportation, costs, stigma, and lack of provider skills are also

Border towns and spaces of (in)visibility.pdf
This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

- 4. 2oC Target
- 5. Projections of soil moisture change 1986-2005 to 2081-2100 for high emission scenario The availability of water will be different in a climate changed by our emissions Just how different depends on how quickly we move to a low-carbon world IPCC AR5
- 6. Risk Underestimate? (Lancet Climate Change Commission 2015)
- 7. Exposure to thermal stress (monthly mean Wet Bulb GlobeTemperature hottest month) late 21 st century (RCP 6.0 emissions pathway HadGEM2/GFDL midpoint) Kjellstrom T, Lemke B, Le Quéré C, Otto M, Briggs D, Freyberg C, Haines A unpublished

- 9. Many millions more people are projected to be flooded every year due to sea-level rise by the 2080s Source: IPCC Wg II, TSI 2007.
- 10. Record drought in Syria – risk more than doubled by climate change Kelley et al., PNAS 2015 http://www.pnas.org/content/suppl/2015/02/23/1421533112.DCSupplemental/pnas.2 01421533SI.pdf
- 11. Physical limits: small low lying islands e.g. Cayman Islands Behavioural limits: influence where we live and why, e.g. New Orleans Technological limits: e.g. to the flood defences What are the physical, behavioural and technological limits to how much we can adapt- who should pay ?
- 12. Health co-benefits from the ‘low- carbon’ economy (avoiding harms) Through policies in several sectors e.g. Housing Transport Food and agriculture Electricity generation
- 14. Health Economic Benefits of reducing air pollution through low carbon policies ◦ Marginal benefits of avoided mortality $50-380/tCO2 -exceed abatement costs ( West et al Nature Climate Change 2014) ◦ Global Fossil fuel subsidies ◦ $5.3 tn. annually (IMF 2015) Addressing coal combustion is a priority
- 15. The Future of Planetary health will depend on cities Cities responsible for ~ 85% of global GDP in 2015 and 71–76% of global energy-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Newclimateeconomy.report/workingpaper_ci ties_final_web.pdf 2015
- 16. What could cities do for climate change mitigation and adaptation? 16 Accessible efficient public transport and active travel Universal access to clean low carbon energy Safe access to green spaces and ecosystem strategies for resilience Housing Improvements Water and Sanitation
