Nature's way of dealing with unhealthy conditions is unfortunately not one that compels us to conduct a solvent hygiene on a cash basis. 1919, George Bernard Shaw The Global Unified Meta-model of the BiOsphere (GUMBO) was used to simulate how the socioeconomic conditions specified in the Special Report on Emission Scenarios (SRES) of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) influenc...

Increased concern over climate change is demonstrated by the many efforts to assess climate effects and develop adaptation strategies. Scientists, resource managers, and decision makers are increasingly expected to use climate information, but they struggle with its uncertainty. With the current proliferation of climate simulations and downscaling methods, scientifically credible strategies for...

The Arctic Climate Impact Assessment (ACIA) was published in 2005 and was the first comprehensive scientific assessment of climate change in the Arctic ( ). Potential direct and indirect health impacts of climate change are described in chapter 5 of this assessment. Direct health effects of climate change will result from changes in ambient temperatures. As the ambient temperature increases, th...

Climate change and related adaptation strategies have gender-differentiated impacts. This paper reviews how gender is framed in 41 papers on climate change adaptation through an intersectionality lens. The main findings show that while intersectional analysis has demonstrated many advantages for a comprehensive study of gender, it has not yet entered the field of climate change and gender. In c...

Global assessments have shown that future climate change is likely to significantly impact forest ecosystems. The present study makes an assessment of the impact of projected climate change on forest ecosystems in India. This assessment is based on climate projections of Regional Climate Model of the Hadley Centre (HadRM3) using the A2 (740 ppm CO2) and B2 (575 ppm CO2) scenarios of Special Rep...

Linking global science to locally significant places with visioning processes and visualizations represents a powerful tool for decision-making in the context of climate change responses. The Local Climate Change Visioning Project in British Columbia, Canada, builds on recent advances in backcasting and scenario-building to bridge the divide between predictive, quantitative approaches and narra...

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was set up jointly by the World Meteorological Organization and the United Nations Environment Programme to provide an authoritative international statement of scientific understanding of climate change. The IPCC’s periodic assessments of the causes, impacts and possible response strategies to climate change are the most comprehensive and up-...

Article history: Received 22 June 2013 Received in revised form 28 January 2014 Accepted 28 January 2014 Available online xxxx The long-term economics of mitigating climate change over the long run has played a high profile role in the most important analyses of climate change in the last decade, namely the Stern Report and the IPCC's Fourth Assessment. However, the various kinds of uncertainti...
