Summary: | The little data book on climate change
includes a diverse set of indicators selected from the
global economic and scientific communities. These indicators
recognize the intrinsic relationship between climate change
and development and attempt to synthesize important aspects
of current and projected climate conditions, exposure to
climate impacts, resilience, greenhouse gas emissions, and
the current state of efforts to take action. The little data
book on climate change draws upon several online resources,
including the open data website, the climate change
knowledge portal, and the open data for resilience
initiative. These resources from the World Bank and the
Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR)
provide free and open access to data and information
relevant to climate risk, climate change, and development at
the international, national and subnational levels. These
resources contain many more indicators than are available in
the limited space of this book and include interactive
tools, visualizations on the use and interpretation of the
data. In addition, there are other tools that will help
users and programmers access World Bank data and develop applications. |
