“Planning for Adaptation to Climate Change in India: Methodology and Some Results"
The impacts of climate change are already being felt in the Indian
Sub-continent and in many areas they are expected to get worse. It is
crucial therefore to evaluate different adaptation options and to
select those that can be justified in economic and social terms. This
seminar will present a methodology for evaluating adaptation options in
the areas of health, water (including flooding), agriculture and
biodiversity. The aim is to estimate the costs of the programs needed,
so that resources can be allocated in the short to medium term. The
methodology side will be presented by BC3 researchers and the empirical
side by researchers from The Energy Research Institute (TERI), a
leading research centre in India.
