Children and Climate Change
How can communities adapt to climate change?
The ability by communities to adapt to climate change is determined by their level of development, their access to resources and their experience and knowledge of their environment. The adaptation also depends on the impact of Climate Change varying from community by community. Some may have been affected by long dry spell, some by floods, storm, cyclones resulting water shortages, destruction of crops, drought . Adaptation can take different forms, such as community education on sustainable agriculture, training and awareness of climate change and introduction of drought-resistant seeds and education on storage and preservation of food.
