Vulnerability, Mitigation, Adaptation, Resilience: the role of Climate Change Experts
Mitigating and adapting to the effects of climate change is the defining challenge of present and future generations. When it comes to assessing climate change risks to natural and social systems, institutions still face significant technical barriers. Climate Change Consultants can be key partners in overcoming this challenge. We bring multidisciplinary expertise with a particular focus on watershed management, urban heat islands, geographical information systems and climate downscaling.
Climate change presents business risks that are unique in that the impact is global, the problem is long-term, and the harm is essentially irreversible. Climate Change Consultants has the ability to translate science into the potential and plausible scenarios a firm may face.

This December, 195 nations along with the European Union will meet in Paris during the 21st annual Conference Of the Parties of the United-Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change; it’s short name: COP21.
"Know that the climate does not care about political borders; it does not notice the color of our skin or which god we worship. It has an influence over biodiversity and humanity in their entirety. We are the first generation to face the effects of climate change, and we are also the ones who are responsible for changing our mentalities. We must re-establish our respect of the environment for the survival of all species, including ours."

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
IPCC PRESS RELEASE - April 2014
IPCC: Greenhouse gas emissions accelerate despite reduction efforts
Many pathways to substantial emissions reductions are available
BERLIN, 13 April – A new report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) shows that global emissions of greenhouse gases have risen to unprecedented levels despite a growing number of policies to reduce climate change. Emissions grew more quickly between 2000 and 2010 than in each of the three previous decades.
According to the Working Group III contribution to the IPCC’s Fifth Assessment Report, it would be possible, using a wide array of technological measures and changes in behaviour, to limit the increase in global mean temperature to two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. However, only major institutional and technological change will give a better than even chance that global warming will not exceed this threshold. +Read More

IPCC PRESS RELEASE - March 2014
A changing climate creates pervasive risks but opportunities exist for effective responses
Responses will face challenges with high warming of the climate
YOKOHAMA, Japan, 31 March – The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issued a report today that says the effects of climate change are already occurring on all continents and across the oceans. The world, in many cases, is ill-prepared for risks from a changing climate. The report also concludes that there are opportunities to respond to such risks, though the risks will be difficult to manage with high levels of warming.
The report, titled Climate Change 2014: Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability, from Working Group II of the IPCC, details the impacts of climate change to date, the future risks from a changing climate, and the opportunities for effective action to reduce risks. A total of 309 coordinating lead authors, lead authors, and review editors, drawn from 70 countries, were selected to produce the report. They enlisted the help of 436 contributing authors, and a total of 1,729 expert and government reviewers. +Read More
