Air quality co-benefits of ratcheting up the NDCs
(Climatic Change, 2020-04-18)The current nationally determined contributions, pledged by the countries under the Paris Agreement, are far from limiting climate change to below 2 ∘C temperature increase by the end of the century. The necessary ratcheting ... -
Are we expecting too much from the private sector in flood adaptation? Scenario-based field experiments with small- and medium-sized firms in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
(Climatic Change, 2020-10-23)Adaptive governance approaches emphasize the crucial role of the private sector in enabling climate change adaptation. Yet, the participation of local firms is still lacking, and little is known about the conditions ... -
Assessment of crop risk due to climate change in Sao Tome and Principe
(Regional Environmental Change, 2021-02-11)Sao Tome and Principe is a small insular country in the west coast of Central Africa. The small dimensions of the islands and the limited natural resources put these islands under highly vulnerable to climate change. To ... -
