The document discusses youth activities related to climate change adaptation in South Korea. It describes two youth organizations, Green Environment Youth Korea (GEYK) and SDSN Youth, that are working to raise awareness and take action on climate issues through local projects, campaigns, networking, and education. GEYK's projects include building a garden to increase pollination and reduce heat, and promoting bicycling. SDSN Youth educates others about sustainability goals and connects young people globally. The document argues that youth are important for executing climate policies and inspiring social change, and that governments should support and connect with youth efforts to strengthen climate adaptation.
Resource Guide for Advanced Learning on Predicting and Projecting Climate ChangeUN CC:Learn
This resource guide contains a wealth of learning resources on predicting and projecting climate change available that have been identified as important from a country perspective. It includes first guide which directs a user to specific learning materials and courses, as well as selected reference materials relevant for learning. This guide is a part of the UN CC:Learn Series of Resources Guides for Advanced Learning on Climate Change.
this is very interesting and it drives common people towards the real emerging environmental problems in 21st century. they would be surprised to see none of the top 5 problems belong to scientific issues.
Climate is hardly a new factor in Africa’s history but with global warming the continent’s vulnerability is deepening making it the most exposed region in the world to the impact of climate change (World Bank 2006)
Online Training Resource for Climate Adaptation: IntroductionDeborah Davies
Introduction to the online, interactive training resource developed by the Western Norway Research Institute (WRNI)/ Vestlandsforsking.
The slide show includes a brief on the modules covered in the training resource.
The goal of the training resource is to promote a holistic approach to climate change adaptation and enhance awareness of available planning tools and processes that will promote the development of sustainable adaptation measures.
We use the word sustainable over successful, because many projects can achieve short term success, but lasting viability is essential for communities to cope with current and long-term impacts of a changing climate.

Solar energy ongoing project by Christian BardajíASCAME
The energy model on which the majority of cities in developed countries are based upon is characterized by centralization and unsustainability. Barcelona, being a Mediterranean city, faces the challenge to increase its solar energy supply, moving towards a more sustainable energy model, while strengthening the network's business sector.
ASCAME is committed to this initiative, in the framework of the European project FOSTEr in MED gathering together in the auditorium of the Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Navigation of Barcelona, several experts in the field of renewable energy, as well as companies, public authorities, universities and organizations that will analyse the state of sector, its’ trends and the business development scenario emerged.

Extent of Implementation of and Level of Participation in the Project Carbon ...INFOGAIN PUBLICATION
In response to the call for stewardship, De La Salle Philippines launched the Project Carbon Neutral in 2009. The implementation of this program is being spearheaded by the Lasallian Institute for the Environment (LIFE) and is participated in by all Lasallian schools in the Philippines. The main objective of Project Carbon Neutral or PCN is to benchmark and assess the status of the carbon footprint of De La Salle Philippines (DLSP), the network of Lasallian educational institutions, with the goal of achieving a “green” educational network that is carbon-neutral or better. Since its implementation in 2009, there has been no baseline study conducted along these areas. The extent of implementation and the level of participation of the Lasallian family were looked into in this study. The study surveyed a total of three hundred three (300) purposively sampled members of the De La Salle Lipa community. The mitigating measures of the PCN are perceived to be often implemented and priority is often shown by the Lasallian community. The Lasallian community is perceived to have moderate levels of participation as they often show priority and have fairly supported the activities of the PCN. Geared towards combating the identified problems, this action plan and monitoring and evaluation plan were drafted and put forward.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

I. Background
Mitigation and adaptation
- Mitigation: how to save changing world
(reducing CO2 emission, carbon capture technology etc.)
- Adaptation: how to live under changing world
(action, policy, infra, socio-economic measures & disaster risk reduction)
Korea’s Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC)
- Reduce 37% of emission (536 million ton) form BAU (850.8 million ton) in 2030
- Originally 25.7% from domestic and 11.3% from international carbon market
- Now 11.3% changed 4.5% including LULUCF and foreign market
Higher pressures on reducing emission in domestic

I. Background
Adaptive measure can change climate change impact and vulnerability
Adaptive measure can help reducing emission and NDC

14. Synthesize Youth Activities
III. Youth, way forward
Adaptation is not “Big-things” but it affects sensitivity & adaptation capacity
They do the real action in field
- Korean CCA is based on the government policy by each sector, so government
makes National Adaptation Plans, public official execute it
- GEYK and SDSN Korea Youth’s activities have some common with national plans
(civil movements & risk management & social and educational part)
- Youth has a power to execute the climate change policy and plan (in many fields)
They inspire the people
- Their action can change negative social opinions to positive social opinions, and
youth can suggest better social network, NGO activities, and global cooperation
- Eco-friendly policy and adaptation plan can be more intermediate with the people,
especially seminars and campaigns by GEYK and SDSN Korea Youth’s
NAP Expo 11 April 2019, Songdo, Republic of Korea

15. Approaches of CCA with Youth
III. Youth, way forward
Policy: bottom-up activities
- Need to support youth in CCA policy (give them some advantages)
- Connect their activities into CCA policy
Science: clear assessment measure
- CCA by youth may small, but it makes impacts
- Consider their activities as social sensitivity, adaptation capacity,
and new pathways for SDGs
Social: reinforcement
- Promote positive reinforcement to continue their activity
- Empower them when we execute some policy
