The emergence of climate change pose one of the most critical global challenges of our time with far-reaching implications for all humans. In Africa, a continent particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, knowledge and education plays pivotal roles in building resilience and fostering sustainable practices. This paper presents comprehensive strategies and techniques essential to repackage scholarly information resources to create awareness and promote understanding of climate change issues specifically tailored to suit the varying literacy levels in Africa.

Considerations around geospatial approaches for working on the UN 2030 Agenda for sustainable development, including links between different SDGs, civil society participation and standards.
With water resource variability rapidly growing and demands on water resources increasing, using digital tools and innovative, inclusive institutional approaches to address both challenges is becoming ever-more urgent.
A recent workshop under the CGIAR Research Program on Water, Land and Ecosystems (Research Area on Variability, Risks and Competing Uses), showcased research outputs in two activity clusters - Managing Resource Variability and Risks for Resilience and Managing Competing Uses and Trade-offs - that can help increase water security for poor rural users while also improving food security and rural livelihoods.
United Nations General Assembly Informal dialogue on building resilience and ...Christina Parmionova
The world is at a crossroads in harnessing the potential of infrastructure connectivity. It
has been estimated that US$ 4.2 trillion can be saved by investing in more resilient
infrastructure due to reduced losses and damages, and lower recovery costs post-disaster.
For the SDGs to be achieved, and for a low-carbon, climate-resilient future to be unlocked,
US$ 6.9 trillion per year must be invested by 2030. The Sendai Framework for Disaster
Risk Reduction and the Paris Agreement call for sustainable and resilient infrastructure
to mitigate the effects of climate change and to future-proof existing assets.Reliable and s ustainable infrastructure can set countries towards a development path
marked by reduced infrastructure damage, minimized systemic risk, and fast-paced progress towards the SDGs. This will require an unprecedented scale up of investments
from both the public and private sectors. Delaying this process will only increase the costs
and lead to stagnant development, abandoned infrastructure assets, and escalating existential risk. Promoting and facilitating sustainable development through regional and inter-regional infrastructure connectivity will allow for a fast-streamed attainment of the
2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development across both developed and developing
countries.
Building systemic climate resilience in citiesOECDregions
Climate shocks can have drastic impacts across social, economic and environmental systems.
Adopting a “systems approach” is therefore essential to help promote cross-sectoral, multi-disciplinary collaboration in the process of policy making.
The systems approach to climate shocks is even more relevant to cities, as they are places of concern due to the increased exposure to risk, but are also places of opportunities and solution.

Water is critical for meeting commitments of the Paris Agreement and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Our economies rely on water, with recent estimates putting the economic value of water and freshwater ecosystems at USD 58 trillion - equivalent to 60% of global GDP. At the same time, water related risks are increasing in frequency and scale in the context of climate change.
How are investments shaping our economies and societies exposure to water risk? What role can the financial system play in supporting water security? And how can increased understanding of how finance both impacts and depends on water resources spur action towards greater water security?
This OECD Green Talks LIVE on Tuesday 14 May 2024 from 15:00 to 16:00 CEST discussed the evolving landscape for assessing water risks to the financial system.
OECD Policy Analyst Lylah Davies presented key findings and recommendations from recent OECD work on assessing the financial materiality of water-related risks, including the recently published paper “Watered down? Investigating the financial materiality of water-related risks” and was joined by experts to discuss relevant initiatives underway.

The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

"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.
