- Climate change mitigation and adaptation in practicePublication . Leal Filho, Walter; Kovaleva, Marina; Dinis, Maria Alzira Pimenta; Luetz, Johannes M.; Alves, Fátima; Nagy, Gustavo J.; Yaffa, Sidat; Ayal, Desalegn Yayeh; Kalungu, JokastahClimate change represents one of the most pressing global challenges, with far-reaching consequences for ecosystems, economies, and societies. Driven primarily by human activities, notably fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, climate change has led to rising global temperatures, increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, sea-level rise, and significant disruptions to natural systems. These impacts pose serious risks to biodiversity, food security, water availability, public health, and economic stability. Addressing this multifaceted challenge requires an integrated approach that combines both mitigation and adaptation strategies. Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation in Practice brings together interdisciplinary research, case studies, and applied solutions that explore these complementary pathways. The volume examines strategies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, enhancing carbon sequestration, and implementing adaptive measures across key sectors, including agriculture, energy, urban planning, and water management. Emphasising real-world applications and collaborative approaches, the book highlights successful examples of climate action and underscores the role of scientific, policy, and social innovation in building resilience. By integrating technical solutions with governance and policy frameworks, this volume provides students, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers with critical insights and practical tools to support transformative climate action towards a more sustainable and socially just future.
