Impacts, Adaption and vunerability

As temperatures rise, so do geopolitical tensions

Mapping vulnerability: why the IPCC's geography of climate risk is contentiousThe UN's climate science panel labelled 3.3-3.6bn people as highly vulnerable to climate disaster - but the definition is disputed

Floods and Storms

Floods and storms in EuropeThe CRISEPAC project is an Erasmus project led by Ecocène, a French environmental NGO. This project brings together Eurogeo, a European NGO, Casa do professor (Portugal), Athens Lifelong Learning Institute (Greece) and Latvia Vidzeme Gulbene (Latvia). The CRISEPAC project aims to create a training and support campaign for educational actors to train on natural risks (objective 1), to create innovative educational tools combining thematic transversalities to train children on natural risks (objective 2), and to make the local issues of climate change understood and strengthen the role of the population in risk prevention, through teaching and adult education to young people (objective 3). The Crisepac project proposes to carry out three main complementary actions (3 WPs) to achieve these objectives:

Flooding in the USA

FloodsClimate change is increasing the risk of flooding in the US by rising sea levels, increasing extreme precipitation and total precipitation, intensifying storm precipitation, and increasing rates of snow and ice melt. Worsening floods due to climate change are putting a growing number of inland and coastal communities at risk.

WildfiresClimate change is increasing the size, frequency, and intensity of wildfires as well as the length of the fire season. All fire needs to burn is an ignition source and plenty of fuel. While climate change might not ignite the fire, it is giving fires the chance to turn into catastrophic blazes by creating warmer temperatures, increasing the amount of fuel (dried vegetation) available, and reducing water availability through earlier snowmelt and higher evaporation. Climate scientists have already identified the telltale fingerprint of climate change on wildfire activity in the past decade.

Climate changeGood stewardship of the land is vital to climate change mitigation and adaptation, and to help the global community stay on track to meet the Paris Agreement targets. UNCCD’s goal is to make land-based ecosystems and communities more resilient and better able to adapt to the effects of global heating.
