Product Information
China has been subject to floods, droughts and heat waves for millennia; these hazards are not new. What is new is how rapidly climate risks are changing for different groups of people and sectors. This is due to the unprecedented rates of socio-economic development, migration, land-use change, pollution and urbanisation, all occurring alongside increasingly more intense and frequent weather hazards and shifting seasons. China's leadership is facing a significant challenge - from conducting and integrating biophysical and social vulnerability and risk assessments and connecting the information from these to policy priorities and time frames, to developing and implementing policies and actions at a variety of scales. It is within this challenging context that China's policy makers, businesses and citizens must manage climate risk and build resilience. This book provides a detailed study of how China has been working to understand and respond to climatic risk, such as droughts and desertification in the grasslands of Inner Mongolia to deadly typhoons in the mega-cities of the Pearl River Delta. Using research and data from a wide range of Chinese sources and the Adapting to Climate Change in China (ACCC) project, a research-to-policy project, this book provides a fascinating glimpse into how China is developing policies and approaches to manage the risks and opportunities presented by climate change. This book will be of interest to those studying global and Chinese climate change policy, regional food, water and climate risk, and to policy advisors.

Reviews
" Climate Risk and Resilience in China overviews adaptation planning processes and mainstreaming practices which help researchers, policy makers and other stakeholders better understand climate change risks and adaptation plans in China". -Professor Li Yue, Climate Change Division, Institute of Environment and Sustainable Development in Agriculture, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences " Climate Risk and Resilience in China manages to clearly communicate the complex Chinese context whilst showing how human development influences vulnerability, makes it a significant contribution to a fast-developing field of research. Its nuanced analysis provides the reader with much-needed insights into climate change adaptation in this important country."-Tor Håkon Jackson Inderberg, PhD, Senior Research Fellow and European Programme Director, The Fridtjof Nansen Institute, Oslo, Norway, and Editor-in-Chief for Climate Change Adaptation and Development: Changing Paradigms and Practices. "Climate Risk and Resilience in China identifies and addresses many urgent issues in China's climate change adaptation policies at the provincial level. Based on comprehensive case studies, this book demonstrates to the readers that climate change, social-economic development and disaster risk reduction must be incorporated into policy planning processes and even more importantly, although more difficult, mainstreamed into practice." - Professor Ye Qian, Executive Director Integrated Risk Governance Project/Future Earth Program, Beijing Normal University, " Climate Risk and Resilience in China overviews adaptation planning processes and mainstreaming practices which help researchers, policy makers and other stakeholders better understand climate change risks and adaptation plans in China".-Professor Li Yue, Climate Change Division, Institute of Environment and Sustainable Development in Agriculture, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences " Climate Risk and Resilience in China manages to clearly communicate the complex Chinese context whilst showing how human development influences vulnerability, makes it a significant contribution to a fast-developing field of research.
