Global Terrestrial Observing System: GTOS implementation plan : version 2.0
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO); International Council for Science (ICSU); et al. - WMO, 1998The overall GTOS Implementation Plan (1998) lays out the elements of the GTOS programme and assigns levels of priority to the activities to be undertaken. The management of data and information, from data collection through to the production of information products for policy and decision making, is clearly a key element of GTOS and, in response to this imperative, there are a number of activities identified as “very important to be acted upon as quickly as possible”. These include the development of a GTOS Data and Information Plan, and the development and implementation of a number of data-r ...

Comprehensive assessment of the freshwater resources of the world
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; United Nations (UN); United Nations Development Programme (UNDP); et al. - WMO, 1997Few would dispute that urban water systems should be both healthy and sustainable. Ideally, along with efficiency, these are central pillars in every urban water strategy. Unfortunately, the narrow pursuit of health can undermine the sustainability of water systems, and vice versa. Such trade-offs must not be rationalised away, but recognised in order to develop diversified and better aimed water strategies. It is crude policies, such as promoting health by providing free water for all, or promoting sustainability by charging everyone high prices, that create the steepest trade-offs. Trade-off ...

IPCC Special Report. The Regional Impacts of Climate Change: An Assessment of Vulnerability : summary for Policymakers
The Special Report explores the potential consequences of changes in climate for ten continental- or subcontinentalscale regions. Because of the uncertainties associated with
regional projections of climate change, the report necessarily takes the approach of assessing sensitivities and vulnerabilities of each region, rather than attempting to provide quantitative predictions of the impacts of climate change. As in the SAR, “vulnerability” is the extent to which climate change may damage or harm a system; it is a function of both sensitivity to climate and the ability to adapt to new co ...

Understanding climate change : a beginner's guide to the UN Framework Convention
Information Unit on Climate Change (IUCC); Information Unit on Climate Change (IUCC); United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) - UNEP, 1995Introduction: A giant asteroid could hit the earth! Something else could happen! The global temperature could rise! Wake up! The 1990s have been a time of international soul- searching about the environment. What are we doing to our planet? More and more, we are realising that the Industrial Revolution has changed forever the relationship between humanity and nature. There is real concern that by the middle or the end of the next century human activities will have changed the basic conditions that have allowed life to thrive on earth.
