Climate change is globally recognized among the most crucial (if not the most crucial) emergencies that human societies and the entire planet are facing in current times. Accordingly, notable efforts are being made at the political, scientific and public opinion levels to counter global environmental change (and in particular to lower the pace of global warming, through a significant reduction of carbon emissions at the global level). In this scenario, psychological science can contribute non only to understand how human societies can shift from more to less carbon-intensive but also to better understand how individuals, groups and communities may adapt to ongoing global environmental change in their daily lives. The “Adaptation to climate change” Research Topic involves processes of both assimilation and accommodation. In both, it serves optimal development under more difficult conditions. Adaptation to climate change requires empirical research on the psychological aspects, interdisciplinary dialogue with other sciences as well as reflection on the changed self-image of psychology as a science and a profession. Processes of adaptation can be found e.g. in the shift of focus … ● from individual and community to environment, ● from concepts and theories to measurement, ● from more general and macro factors to micro factors, ● from general to diverse impact, ● from urban and rural to environmental factors, ● from bouncing back to growth, ● from segmented to an integrative approach. Specifically, for the “Adaptation to Climate Change” research topic, the Topic Editors welcome themes such as: ● Adaptation of perception: General and special conditions of environmental perception. ● Reorientation of education: Shaping the social and physical environment to promote positive development. ● Strengthening the sense of responsibility: Conditions for environmentally friendly behaviour. ● Realignment of intervention: Environment as a specific means of promoting mental health. ● Reshaping the environment: Designing the environment to meet sustainable living conditions. Any other related themes, even if not specifically mentioned here, will be welcome as well.

This book emphasis the role of farm level adaptation as a key in developmental pathways that are challenged by climate risks in the semi-arid tropics of Asia and Africa. It throws light on key issues that arise in farm level impacts, adaptation and vulnerability to climate change and discusses Q2 methodological approaches undertaken in study domains of Asia and Africa. The book systematically describes the perceptions, aspirations as elicited/voiced by the farmers and identifies determinants of adaptation decisions. Chapters identify constraints and opportunities that are translated into indicative intervention recommendations towards climate resilient farm households in the semi-arid tropics of Asia and Africa. Furthermore, it discusses with evidences that contributes to the development of livelihood strategy for poor farmers in Asia (Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Vietnam and China) and Africa (Burkina Faso, Niger, Kenya and Ghana).

It contains the executive summary, chapters of the report, including the conclusions and recommendations, and three NPCC workbooks as appendices. The NPCC has prepared a set of climate change projections for the New York City region and has examined how climate change has the potential to both positively and negatively affect the critical infrastructure of New York City. It has suggested approaches to create an effective adaptation program for critical infrastructure, including ways to assess risks, prioritize strategies, and examine how standards and regulations may need to be adjusted in a changing climate.

As it becomes clear that climate change is not easily within the boundaries of the 1990’s, society needs to be prepared and needs to anticipate future changes due to the uncertain changes in climate. So far, extensive research has been carried out on several issues including the coastal defence or shifting ecozones. However, the role spatial design and planning can play in adapting to climate change has not yet been focused on. This book illuminates the way adaptation to climate change is tackled in water management, ecology, coastal defence, the urban environment and energy. The question posed is how each sector can anticipate climate change by creating spatial designs and plans. The main message of this book is that spatial design and planning are a very useful tool in adapting to climate change. It offers an integral view on the issue, it is capable in dealing with uncertainties and it opens the way to creative and anticipative solutions. Dealing with adaptation to climate change requires a shift in mindset; from a technical rational way of thinking towards an integral proactive one. A new era in spatial design and planning looms on the horizon.
