Even if the world could cut its carbon emissions to zero tomorrow, further significant global climate change is now inevitable. Although we cannot tell with certainty how much average global temperatures will rise, we do know that the warming we have experienced to date has caused significant losses, and that the failure to prepare for the consequences of further warming may prove to be staggering. Building a Resilient Tomorrow does not dwell on overhyped descriptions of apocalyptic climate scenarios, nor does it travel down well-trodden paths surrounding the politics of reducing carbon emissions. Instead, it starts with two central facts: climate impacts will continue to occur, and we can make changes now to mitigate their effects. While squarely confronting the scale of the risks we face, this pragmatic guide focuses on solutions-some gradual and some more revolutionary-currently being deployed around the globe. Each chapter presents a thematic lesson for decision-makers and engaged citizens to consider, outlining replicable successes and identifying provocative recommendations to strengthen climate resilience. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Climatic changes|xRisk management|zVirginia|zNorfolk. 650 0 Climatic changes|xGovernment policy|zVirginia|zNorfolk. 650 0 Climatic changes|xSocial aspects|zVirginia|zNorfolk. 650 0 Climate change mitigation|zVirginia|zNorfolk. 650 0 Environmental policy|zVirginia|zNorfolk. 650 0 Ecosystem management|zVirginia|zNorfolk. 651 0 Norfolk (Va.)|xEnvironmental conditions. 700 1 Martinez-Diaz, Leonardo,|d1976-|eauthor. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 12837643?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ ttm_9781705207918_180.jpeg
