The degradation of our life-enhancing planet Earth has resulted in
climate change, desertification, wild fires, livestock mortality,
microbial ecosystem alteration, floods, extreme weather conditions,
economic meltdown, poverty, resource conflicts, disease, death, and
desperate migration from the most vulnerable regions. Africa, the
world`s hottest continent, has deserts and drylands that cover
about 60 percent of its land surface area and remains the most
vulnerable continent to climate change. At the same time, Africa is
the world's second most populous continent and is projected soon to
be the most populous. Dr. Popoola's work highlights the uniqueness
of Africa and the extent of its vulnerability to global climate
change as well as its advantages and limitations in context of
current mitigation and adaptation strategies. Africa and Climate
Change is an indispensable guide to ensuring global food security,
sustainable livelihoods, and ecosystem survival, not only in
Africa, but in other less vulnerable continents.
