Adaptation: why institutions, not aid, are the answer Experts will argue that prosperity and the institutions of free societies  not foreign aid or mitigation  are inherently the best way to reduce humanityÂs vulnerability to climate change. Adaptation only occurs with economic, social and political freedom, property rights and the rule of law.

Hotspots analysis for climate change impact [early] warning Hotspots are a critical step of environmental degradation and are irreversible without human intervention. Climate change is a trigger that precipitates the development of new hotspots. Typical vulnerability patterns leading to hotspots can be identified and used for advanced early warning.

Keep Kyoto on track More attention is needed to the transport sector! It causes 25% of CO2-emissions and is the sector with the highest growth globally. The different transport modes have to cooperate to create sustainable transport systems with the CO2-advantage of rail and public transport as the backbone.
