Abstract

In Asia and the Pacific, the effects of climate change have become severe; specifically, South Asia is the most vulnerable region in the world. The human and financial effects could be substantially worse if floods, droughts, cyclones, and other extreme climatic events take place in this region frequently. In this special issue, the authors reported climate change indicators such as sea-level rise, flood, drought, geographical, geopolitical and geological conditions. National and regional food security has also been threatened during the last decade due to the adverse effects of climate change on crop production. To overcome such challenges of climate change, introducing climate-smart agriculture, adaptation and mitigation policies to tackle the effect of climate change are required from regional perspectives. Therefore, this special issue solely highlights those climate change points with clarity to refer to the SDGs, mitigation of risk and adoption of new policies and proposes solutions for the adverse effects of climate change and its vulnerability to agricultural livelihoods.
