Synergies between mitigation and adaptation..ppt glf nov 16Liz Kahurani
There is growing recognition of the potential for jointly achieving climate change mitigation and adaptation through land management. Landscape approaches to enhancing multi-functionality have been identified as a promising pathway to synergies between mitigation and adaptation besides helping achieve other livelihood needs through ecosystem services and functions provision. This presentation explores what is known and gaps in understanding of synergies and trade-offs. It also explores the necessary enabling conditions that help promote synergies in order to realize the benefits of the approach. We build on an ex-post analysis of the Ngitili systems in Tanzania and selected examples from agroforestry practices to inform the discussion.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
Diabetes is a rapidly and serious health problem in Pakistan. This chronic condition is associated with serious long-term complications, including higher risk of heart disease and stroke. Aggressive treatment of hypertension and hyperlipideamia can result in a substantial reduction in cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes 1. Consequently pharmacist-led diabetes cardiovascular risk (DCVR) clinics have been established in both primary and secondary care sites in NHS Lothian during the past five years. An audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery at the clinics was conducted in order to evaluate practice and to standardize the pharmacists’ documentation of outcomes. Pharmaceutical care issues (PCI) and patient details were collected both prospectively and retrospectively from three DCVR clinics. The PCI`s were categorized according to a triangularised system consisting of multiple categories. These were ‘checks’, ‘changes’ (‘change in drug therapy process’ and ‘change in drug therapy’), ‘drug therapy problems’ and ‘quality assurance descriptors’ (‘timer perspective’ and ‘degree of change’). A verified medication assessment tool (MAT) for patients with chronic cardiovascular disease was applied to the patients from one of the clinics. The tool was used to quantify PCI`s and pharmacist actions that were centered on implementing or enforcing clinical guideline standards. A database was developed to be used as an assessment tool and to standardize the documentation of achievement of outcomes. Feedback on the audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery and the database was received from the DCVR clinic pharmacist at a focus group meeting.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
Integrated landscape approaches to manage societal and environmental issues in the tropics

54th Meeting of the ATBC

INTEGRATED LANDSCAPE APPROACHES TO MANAGE
SOCIETAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES IN THE TROPICS
2. INTEGRATED LANDSCAPE APPROACHES: WHY?
• A response to the failings of sectorial land
management approaches
• The latest in a series of attempts to
concurrently address conservation,
development and restoration challenges
• A refinement of previous approaches
• A method to integrate stakeholders at
multiple scales
• A framework to integrate policy and practice
• A land management strategy to fulfill social,
economic, ecological & cultural objectives,
including forest restoration
• A tool to assess performance and manage
trade-offs within the landscape
• All of the above?

5. EMBRACING THE LANDSCAPE APPROACH –
INTEGRATED SOLUTIONS FOR PEOPLE ACROSS SECTORS
“Despite some barriers to
implementation, a landscape approach
has considerable potential to meet social
and environmental objectives at local
scales while aiding national commitments
to addressing ongoing global challenges.”
Reed et al. 2016, Global Change Biology.
7. OPERATIONALISING THE LANDSCAPE APPROACH:
FROM THEORY TO PRACTICE
THEORY & POLICY
PRACTICE:
Integration &
evaluation
Local stakeholders:
NGO’s; CSO’s
Local communities
Private sector
Local government
Drivers:
Researchers
Policy makers
Central government
8. “We conclude that landscape approaches are a welcome departure from
previous unsuccessful attempts at reconciling conservation and
development in the tropics but, despite claims to the contrary, remain
nascent in both their conceptualization and implementation”. (Reed et
al. 2017)
9. FORESTS SUSTAINING AGRICULTURE
How does landscape configuration maximise the provision of these
goods and services for both forestry and food production???
Water regulation
Climate regulation
Pollination
Pest control
10. “When incorporating forests and trees within an appropriate and
contextualized natural resource management strategy, there is
potential to maintain, and in some cases, enhance agricultural yields
comparable to solely monoculture systems”. Reed et al. 2017
11. KEY FINDINGS
Optimizing adoption of landscape approaches:
• Evaluating progress within a landscape is fundamental
to determining where gains or losses are being made
• Hybrid, multi-level and cross-sectorial governance
structures that integrate internal traditional knowledge
and external institutional and financial support are
increasingly preferable
• Must acknowledge the need for contextualisation and
not subscribe to panaceas
• Inclusive, participatory stakeholder negotiation can
help align local socio-cultural and global environmental
concerns
• Should recognise dynamic processes and perverse
outcomes
12. CURRENT BARRIERS TO EFFECTIVE IMPLEMENTATION
• The on-going development of theory
and conceptualization may be
stimulating time lags
• The proliferation of terms
associated with landscape
approaches may be impeding policy
and practice progress
• Operating silos persist at all levels
and scales
• Engaging multiple stakeholders is
all too often seen as a box-ticking
exercise to satisfy project
requirements
• Monitoring remains the least well
developed area of landscape
approach application
13. CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS
• Landscape approaches remain
contentious and under-theorized –
“old wine, new bottles?”
• There is good evidence of landscape
approaches being implemented
within the tropics but weak evidence
of effectiveness
• Multi-level engagement seems
fundamental to success but remains
elusive
• Attempts to implement must be
contextualized and willing to
embrace complexity
• Metrics need to continue to develop
• Move beyond “projects” to “process”
