Publisher's Synopsis
Build climate resilience with nature-based solutions.
As the impacts of climate change accelerate, Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) emerges as a powerful strategy to safeguard ecosystems, protect communities, and promote sustainable development. This timely and authoritative book explores how natural systems-forests, soils, wetlands, and coastal ecosystems-can be restored and managed to reduce climate risks and support biodiversity. Written for professionals, students, and decision-makers in the fields of environmental science, climate policy, and sustainable development, this book provides practical frameworks for implementing EbA at local, national, and global levels.
