Abstract

The study examines existing literature on issues of climate change challenges globally, with particular emphasis on mitigating and adapting to climate changes. The study discusses the causes and consequences of climate change, policies and initiatives being implemented by various countries, as well as potential trade-offs and synergies between mitigation and adaptation strategies. It also focuses on how specific sectors such as forestry and the agricultural sector can improve food security, rural livelihoods and carbon sequestration. The study emphases the need for increased investment in green technology, more effective legislation on climate, and improved cooperation internationally. Additionally, it provides some suggestions for incorporating and mitigation and adaptation techniques into an integrated sustainable development paradigm.
