Science in Society: Climate Change and Climate Policies
ISBN: 9781800613515 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Hans von Storch and Nico Stehr, the authors of this anthology, reflect on the popular and scientific perception and construction of the phenomenon of climate, climate change, climate policy and the impact of climate on society. In the early 1990s, the authors encountered notable resistance to the idea of climate change, especially as they wrote about the urgent need for societal adaptation. Something is wrong with our planet, and it is obvious that this has to do with human conduct. Many, if not the majority, of countermeasures to climate impacts require the innovative capacity of science and...

Climate Change and Adaptation for Food Sustainability: Implications and Scenarios from Malaysia
ISBN: 9783030853778 / Angielski / Miękka / 153 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book assesses the vulnerability impacts of climate change on food security by examining a 50 years scenario (2015- 2065) and following a top-down approach. Importantly, looking at the sustainable food production, the authors compared the cost-benefit of adaptation costs from 2015 to 2065. It was found that a 15% adaptation capacity is more efficient for Malaysia in order to combat the climate change effects on the food sector.This book has developed a quantitative adaptive model namely, the Malaysian Climate and Economy (MCE) model, based on the dynamic Computable General Equilibrium...

Impact of Climate Change, Land Use and Land Cover, and Socio-economic Dynamics on Landslides
ISBN: 9789811673160 / Angielski / Miękka / 491 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book discusses the impact of climate change, land use and land cover, and socio-economic dynamics on landslides in Asian countries. Scholars recently have brought about a shift in their focus regarding triggering factors for landslides, from rainfall or earthquake to claiming rapid urbanization, extreme population pressure, improper land use planning, illegal hill cutting for settlements and indiscriminate deforestation. This suggests that the occurrence or probabilities of landslides are shaped by both climate-related and non-climate-related anthropogenic factors. Among these issues,...
