Produktbeschreibung
The race towards the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SGDs) and their targets as well as Nigeria's race towards environmental sustainability are likely to be stalled as Nigeria's rich environmental resource base is being undermined by increasing deforestation (3.5% annually), erosion, floods, desertification, gas flaring and oil pollution. This book provides insight into the environmental degradation, vulnerability of the Niger Delta communities to climate change and its socio economic impacts on livelihoods. The book also provides information to enhance mainstreaming of these environmental issues as they relate to climate change hazards and the vulnerability of the Niger Delta communities- their biodiversity resource base and livelihood into national, state and Local Government Plans and Polices. The book provides vital information on the Niger Delta, climate change contexts in the Niger Delta, gender disaggregated impact on livelihoods and vulnerability assessment as well as evidence based adaptation and policy options identified through a participatory process.
