The Global Scale

This training, led by Meg Caldwell on January 14, 2009, in Marshall, CA, emphasizes the importance of adapting coastal and marine resource management to the impacts of climate change. Grounded in the principles of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the session explores California's initiatives, like AB 32 and REDD, and their significance in stabilizing greenhouse gas concentrations. The discussion includes strategies for addressing development and infrastructure challenges in coastal areas and highlights the critical need for coordinated efforts in adaptation strategies.
