Indicator-based approaches have been used extensively for measuring adaptation. Adopting participatory approaches helps in contextualizing the global level and generic indicators to suit the local-level conditions for measuring adaptation effectiveness. This paper discusses the application of a methodology for identifying a set of adaptation...

Upon the invitation by Solid Waste Management Association of the Philippines (SWAPP) to make a presentation on behalf of CCAC-IGES for our ongoing project in the Philippines, I made a presentation on the topic "Development of National Action plan for reduction of short-lived climate pollutants (SLCP) from Municipal Solid Waste Management (MSWM) in...

To promote measures against global warming based on the Paris Agreement, and to ensure transition to decarbonised societies, it is important to link long-term targets/strategies with short- or mid-term concrete policy targets. As of August 2017, 155 “Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs)” were submitted to UNFCCC (from 182 countries). In 2015...

The benefits of walking have recently inspired considerable research on the relationships between pedestrian choices and numerous built environment factors. These relationships are then elaborated using walkability indices for the meso- the micro-levels. Despite important advances in micro-level research, the walkability concept is based chiefly on...

Carbon dioxide (CO2), which is considered as a primary driver of climate change, is responsible for slightly more than half of the total current warming impact from human-caused emissions (EESI, 2013). Emitted CO2 remain in the atmosphere for hundreds of years, creating warming effect even the new CO2 level reduce to zero. Therefore, the strategies...
