dc.description.abstract |
Mitigation of the causes of climate change and adaptation to their effects are two closely related issues that considered recent and future global sustainable development challenges. The amount of adaptation and the success of mitigation touch all aspects of human lives and their conservations and relay mainly on communities’ consorted efforts. Extensive studies suggest strong link between the climate change trends and trends of human anthropogenic activities. Scenarios of both future trends projected more extreme climate events, financial problems, increase in poverty, increase in energy prices and the increase health problems. All are obstacles for national development plans. This paper is trying to shed lights on current related climate change impact of major sectors. It also suggests general adaptation plan in which mainly depends on consorted international cooperation between the industrialized and developing and least developed countries to safeguard the shared environment and to ensure the livelihoods of the future generations. |
