Dear Colleagues,
Please consider submitting your astracts on preparing for climate change to the session on resilience, vulnerability and adaptation.
We are committed to substantial climate change due to greenhouse gases already emitted from burning fossil fuels. The best-case greenhouse gas emission mitigation programs will likely see humanity dealing with 2°C of warming within 1 to 2 generations. The research community must lead an international, multidisciplinary research application program evaluating resilience, vulnerability and adaptive capacity on a regional basis, and develop strategies for communities to survive, and maintain a reasonable lifestyle under serious, if not catastrophic, climate change impacts.
