What are those safer regions which will be the most favorite destinations of migrants affected by global warming, vulnerable events and ground water depletion? http://www.icsu-visioning.org/2009/08/how-much-change-in-distribution-of-demography-and-agricultural-crop-types-will-take-place/ http://www.icsu-visioning.org/2009/08/how-much-change-in-distribution-of-demography-and-agricultural-crop-types-will-take-place/#comments Sun, 16 Aug 2009 12:03:26 +0000 umesh http://www.icsu-visioning.org/?p=1911 http://www.icsu-visioning.org/2009/08/how-much-change-in-distribution-of-demography-and-agricultural-crop-types-will-take-place/feed/ 0 Is Passive Management Approach still practical for Managing Biodiversity in a Changing Climate within Least Developed Countries? http://www.icsu-visioning.org/2009/08/passive-management-still-practical-for-managing-biodiversity-within-least-developed-countries/ http://www.icsu-visioning.org/2009/08/passive-management-still-practical-for-managing-biodiversity-within-least-developed-countries/#comments Fri, 14 Aug 2009 23:42:27 +0000 elikana kalumanga http://www.icsu-visioning.org/?p=1792 http://www.icsu-visioning.org/2009/08/passive-management-still-practical-for-managing-biodiversity-within-least-developed-countries/feed/ 0 To what extent diverse biological systems’ adaptability and vulnerability to climate change can sustain their economic productivity and the global economic growth? http://www.icsu-visioning.org/2009/09/diverse-biological-systems-adaptability-vulnerability-sustain-economic-productivity/ http://www.icsu-visioning.org/2009/09/diverse-biological-systems-adaptability-vulnerability-sustain-economic-productivity/#comments Tue, 01 Sep 2009 00:34:08 +0000 Cush Ngonzo http://www.icsu-visioning.org/?p=1824 http://www.icsu-visioning.org/2009/09/diverse-biological-systems-adaptability-vulnerability-sustain-economic-productivity/feed/ 0 A similar question to the one asking if its safe to store CO2 underground but taking into account how it might effect processes within the Earth: Is there a danger of CCS trapping heat within the Earth and changing the processes that occur within the Earth? http://www.icsu-visioning.org/2009/08/is-there-a-danger-of-ccs-trapping-heat-within-the-earth/ http://www.icsu-visioning.org/2009/08/is-there-a-danger-of-ccs-trapping-heat-within-the-earth/#comments Mon, 31 Aug 2009 18:15:15 +0000 IDG96 http://www.icsu-visioning.org/?p=2210 http://www.icsu-visioning.org/2009/08/is-there-a-danger-of-ccs-trapping-heat-within-the-earth/feed/ 0 Hazardous Extreme Events: How can we check and revise “old good” paradigms to ensure better decision-making aimed at reduction of natural disasters?
