Aprašymas

This book explores the direct and indirect consequences of climate change in the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East (EMME) region across diverse socio-economic and cultural landscapes.

The EMME region is particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, presenting an urgent need for comprehensive adaptation and mitigation strategies. This book focusses on the specific consequences of climate change, as well as the critical strategies for risk assessment and management across key sectors, including the built environment, public health, and agriculture. Furthermore, the book addresses the cascading effects on human, economic, and environmental systems, exploring sector-specific vulnerabilities to highlight the direct and indirect interdependencies between environmental changes and fields such as education, tourism, cultural heritage, and human migration.

This book will serve as a comprehensive guide for policymakers, practitioners, and stakeholders in the EMME region. It will also be useful for students, researchers and academics studying climate policy, risk management and climate change studies more broadly.
