Climate Change
Climate Change Bibliozone
“Climate change affects us all, but it does not affect us all equally. The poorest and most vulnerable –those who have done the least to contribute to global warming—are bearing the brunt of the impact today.”
Ban Ki-moon - Secretary-General of the United Nations
In November, Foresight For Development turns the spotlight on the future of climate change.
Featured in Bibliozone this month is a collection of publications related to climate change and what to expect in the future. The selection of documents is partial and based on accessible material. Therefore, we would like to invite everyone to supplement our library with additional materials.
