The Adaptation Continuum (Paperback)

Adapting to the consequences accelerated climate change and increasing variability is a huge challenge, particularly for poorer countries. This book reports on research with 14 developing countries on climate adaptation. It finds that there is an urgent need to build the resilience of communities to ensure that they can respond to, and cope with, climatic disturbances. We can no longer separate risk and development. We need holistic and continuing approaches to adapting to climate change.
