| description |
Climate change presents a profound
challenge to food security and development. Negative impacts
from climate change are likely to be greatest in regions
that are currently food insecure and may even be significant
in those regions that have made large gains in reducing food
insecurity over the past half-century. Adaptation in the
agricultural sector is being given a high priority within
this effort because of the inherent sensitivity of food
production to climate and the strong inter-linkages that
exist between climate, agriculture, and economic growth and
development. The purpose of this report is to review the
major effects of climate change on the agricultural sector;
to examine the causes of vulnerability; and to suggest a
range of potential options and investment opportunities for
supporting adaptation efforts and, more generally, for
building adaptive capacity. This report primarily focuses on
appropriate strategies for adapting to climate change
impacts that are projected to occur over the next one to two
decades, although several issues covered in this report are
important for long-term adaptation needs as well. This
report also describes opportunities for linking adaptation
and mitigation, and it discusses the importance of
mainstreaming adaptation into development. |
