    Climate Change and Global Warming: Challenge for Future Generations
    (Academic Publishers & Distributers, 2025) Amina Jafri, Nida Fatma, Pranjali Tripathi
    The world’s most pressing issues today are global warming and climate change, which have a significant impact on economies, societies and the environment everywhere. This study examines the intricate facets of the issues, examining their ramifications, fundamental causes, strategies for mitigating and adapting to their effects. The study highlights how crucial global collaboration and all-encompassing efforts are to effectively tackling these problems. Through an in-depth examination of its impacts on the environment, ecology, and society. This study highlights how important, it is to understand and mitigate climate change. In addition, it studies the causes of climate change, focusing on industrial activity, deforestation, and greenhouse gas emissions in particular (Abu Rayhan et al, 2023). Subsequently, the paper explains several mitigation strategies, including the use of carbon capture and efficiency improvement technologies, reforestation initiatives, and sustainable urban planning. In addition, a comprehensive discourse is conducted regarding adaptation tactics, such as enhanced farming methods, community engagement, informed policies and climate change-resistant infrastructure (IPCC,2021). The paper’s conclusion highlights the significance of quick action and global cooperation in minimizing the effects of climate change and getting ready for them.

    CLIMATE RESILIENCE: BASIC CONCEPTS AND UNDER- STANDING FOR CLIMATIC STUDY
    (Academic Publishers and Distributors, Lucknow, U.P., 2024) Mohd Kashif Khan; Ambrina Sardar Khan, Prateek Srivastava
    Climate resilience is a crucial concept in the face of increasing climate change impacts.As global temperatures rise, extreme weather events become more frequent and sea levels continue to rise, societies and ecosystems are at greater risk. Climate resilience encompasses a set of strategies and measures aimed at building the capacity of systems and communities to adapt, withstand and recover from these impacts. This abstract provides an overview of the key aspects related to climate resilience. The chapter begins by defining climate resilience as the ability of a system or community to anticipate, absorb, adapt to and recover from climate change impacts, while maintaining essential functions and structures. It emphasizes the integration of climate considerations into decision- making processes, the implementation of adaptation and mitigation measures and the promotion of sustainable development practices. Basic concepts related to climate resilience are then presented. These concepts include adaptation, which involves adjusting to reduce vulnerability and increase resilience; mitigation, which focuses on reducing greenhouse gas emissions to limit climate change; vulnerability, which refers to the susceptibility of a system or community to climate change impacts; and resilience-building, which entails implementing strategies to enhance capacity to withstand and recover from climate change. The other important concepts highlighted in the chapter include risk assessment, which evaluates potential climate-related risks and their impacts; adaptive capacity, which relates to the ability to adjust and respond to climate change; cross-sectoral collaboration, emphasizing the importance of integrating efforts across different sectors and stakeholders; nature- based solutions, which harness ecosystem functions to enhance resilience; climate justice, ensuring equitable distribution of costs and benefits; and long-term planning, considering future scenarios and developing strategies for changing conditions. The chapter provides a comprehensive overview of climate resilience, highlighting its importance in addressing climate change impacts. Understanding and implementing the basic concepts related to climate resilience is crucial for building a sustainable and resilient future.
