Dr. Ahmed Kamal hopes that the proceedings of the 7th International Water Conference will help improve policy recommendations and strategies for water management and climate change adaptation. Effective water management practices are crucial to mitigate the impacts of frequent and intense flooding caused by climate change. The 2022 floods in Pakistan were devastating and caused widespread damage and economic losses. Better water management strategies are needed, including effective practices, adequate drainage, and addressing encroachment in floodplains. A multi-pronged approach focusing on both mitigation and adaptation is required, using measures like reducing emissions, building resilience, and infrastructure like levees and dams to protect communities and resources. Policymakers and stakeholders must work together to develop and implement comprehensive, climate-

Climate change is projected to intensify the global water cycle and impact both water availability and demand through changes in precipitation patterns. This poses substantial challenges for water resources management. Adapting water resources management to climate change requires integrated approaches like strengthening institutions, investing in infrastructure and ecosystems, improving knowledge sharing, and adopting cost-effective and adaptive technologies. Mainstreaming climate adaptation into existing water policies and development plans will help build long-term resilience to climate risks. International collaboration is also important given watersheds extend across borders.
Task 6 nur amalina binti zabidi a142031
The city administrator has noticed that the mean sea level has been rising over the past 50 years in the coastal city, which could cause problems in the low-lying city center. As a consultant, there are several actions that can be taken to reduce or mitigate these problems. First, mitigation efforts like reducing greenhouse gas emissions through sustainable development, green transportation, boosting energy efficiency and renewables, and phasing out fossil fuels can help reduce global warming. Second, adaptations like expanding rainwater harvesting, constructing seawalls, and relocating infrastructure can help the city cope with rising sea levels. Overall, mitigation and adaptation strategies are both important to address the challenges from sea level rise.
Task 6 Global Warming (a133921)
Global warming is causing sea levels to rise in a coastal city, threatening low-lying areas of the city. To address this, mitigation and adaptation measures are proposed. Mitigation involves reducing greenhouse gas emissions through sustainable development, green transportation, boosting energy efficiency, renewing renewables, phasing out fossil fuels, and managing forests. Adaptation includes expanding water storage, adjusting agriculture, protecting infrastructure, diversifying tourism, and strengthening energy systems. Together, mitigation and adaptation efforts by various groups can help address the challenges of climate change.
GWP Technical Committee member Mike Muller about Climate Change and IWRM
This document discusses using integrated water resources management (IWRM) as an approach to climate change adaptation. Water is expected to be heavily impacted by climate change and water management is an important area to focus adaptation efforts. IWRM allows countries to build resilience to current climate variability while also developing the capacity to adapt to future impacts. Investing in water management provides both immediate benefits and builds robust institutions to ensure long-term resilience against climate change.

Preparing for climate chage IWRM as a Practical Approach to Climate Change Ad...Global Water Partnership
This document discusses using integrated water resources management (IWRM) as an approach to climate change adaptation. Water is the primary medium through which climate change will impact people, ecosystems and economies. IWRM should therefore be an early focus for adaptation efforts. IWRM alone does not provide all the answers but water management is important for both mitigating problems and providing solutions. The document outlines climate change challenges for water management and how better water management can support adaptation. It also discusses financing issues and concludes that investment in water resources management provides benefits now while building resilience for the future.GWP Technical Committee member Mike Muller about Climate Change and IWRM

Towards a Comprehensive Climate Adaptation Framework for India’s Port Infrast...
The ever-growing impacts of climate change such as extreme heat, more frequent heavy precipitation events, intensifying tropical revolving storms, and sea level rise continue to pose major threats to India’s critical maritime infrastructure. As the country moves towards its ambition of becoming a leading Blue Economy of the world, a wide range of initiatives have been taken by the central and state governments to expand the maritime sector with a specific focus on the transport sector. However, there is little emphasis being paid on protecting the existing and planned seaport infrastructure against the deleterious impacts of climate change. None of the major ports in India have a dedicated climate action strategy and climate adaptation finds no mention in the policy documents pertaining to the maritime transport sector. In this context, this paper aims to highlight the need for a comprehensive, holistic and dynamic climate change adaptation strategy for India’s port infrastructure including support infrastructure and supply chains. The adaptation strategy, at the individual ports’ level and the national level, must be preceded by rigorous risk assessment studies toidentify and prioritise the major challenges arising from climate change at the local level. The paper draws upon international best practices in climate risk assessments and adaptation measures to provide a way forward for Indian ports.
Global warming
The document discusses strategies for mitigating and adapting to the impacts of climate change and sea level rise in coastal cities. It recommends compact urban planning and development approaches like increasing density, diversity of land uses, and accessibility to public transit to reduce carbon emissions. Adaptation strategies include revising building codes, investing in education, and developing climate action plans that address issues like public health, infrastructure, water supply, and ecosystems. Coastal cities should also work to develop low-carbon economies, lifestyles, and policy frameworks.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT - WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE T...
There is direct relationship between environment and economic development. Economic development without environmental considerations can cause serious environmental damage in turn impairing the quality of life of present and future generations. In the process of economic development, the environmental problems have been ignored or less concentrated. Any country’s environmental problems are related to the level of its economic development, the availability of natural resources and the lifestyle of its population. In India, rapid growth of population, poverty, urbanization, industrialization and several related factors are responsible for the rapid degradation of the environment. Environmental problems have become serious in many parts of the country, and hence cannot be ignored. The main environmental problems in India relate to air and water pollution particularly in metropolitan cities and industrial zones, degradation of common property resources (Tanks, Ponds Lakes, Rivers, Forests etc.) which affect the poor adversely as they depends on them for their livelihood, threat to biodiversity and inadequate system of solid waste disposal and sanitation with consequent adverse impact on health, infant mortality and birth rate.
Climate Change Environmental Policy 2005, Pakistan
This document discusses climate change and global warming. It outlines the greenhouse effect and how human activities that produce greenhouse gases are the main cause of global warming. The document also summarizes Pakistan's environmental policy and action plan to address climate change through developing clean energy technologies, implementing emissions reduction programs, and raising public awareness. The conclusion calls for global cooperation to transition to renewable energy in order to cure the effects of climate change.
Building sector strategies for climate change
The document discusses the need for contingency planning in the building sector to prepare for rapid reductions in greenhouse gas emissions that may be required in response to major climate change-related disasters. It suggests developing a variety of contingency plans now by governments and organizations to reduce emissions by 75% over 5 years to have options ready for implementation. Example proposals included introducing carbon taxes, banning new coal plants, retrofitting buildings for energy efficiency, and establishing job training programs to support upgrades. Having contingency plans prepared could lead to more rational responses compared to unprepared reaction in a crisis situation.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Multipurpose Projects
Multipurpose projects have several advantages: they can reduce flooding, impound water for irrigation, human consumption, and power generation while also improving transportation. However, they also have disadvantages, including the inundation of land and forests, displacement of people, and disruption of infrastructure and aquatic ecosystems. Additionally, multipurpose projects face challenges of attracting private investment given their complexity, and require strong regulatory frameworks and coordination between different users and sectors to balance competing demands.

- 1. Message By Dr Ahmed Kamal, Chairman Federal Flood Commission for the Proceedings of 7th IWC I hope the 7th International Conference its proceedings would add value to the policy recommendations and formulation of the strategies on the subject. Water management and climate change adaptability are critical issues that require urgent attention, particularly considering the recent floods in Pakistan. Climate change has led to more frequent and intense weather events such as flooding, which can have devastating consequences for the communities and infrastructure. Effective water management practices are crucial to mitigate the impacts of such events and build climate change adaptability. The 2022 floods impact on Pakistan was devastating and caused widespread human casualties, damage to infrastructure, including roads, bridges, and homes, as well as severe economic losses. There is need for better water management strategies including; effective water management practices and adequate drainage systems as well as addressing the encroachments in the floodplains. A multi-pronged approach that focuses on both mitigation and adaptation is prerequisite. The mitigation efforts should aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and limit the effects of climate change and the adaptation measures should focus on building resilience to the impacts of climate change and improving water management practices. The construction of levees, dams, and other infrastructure can help to protect communities from flooding and ensure the efficient distribution of water resources. It is imperative that policymakers and water stakeholders may work together to develop and implement comprehensive climate change centric plans for tackling water resource system and to promote sustainability and resilience.
