Adapting to a Changing Climate
Adapting to a Changing Climate
Adapting to climate change will require innovation across many different fields of research. This video produced by Wondrium introduces new innovations, such as drought-resistant maize and coastal carbon capture, that will help us adapt to a changing planet.
Key Ideas
As this video progresses, key ideas will be introduced to invoke discussion.
Chapters
Think about the following questions as you watch the video
- Why are farmers particularly vulnerable to climate change?
- What is ONE CGIAR? What do they do and why is it important?
- What are small-holder farms, and what challenges do they face because of climate change?
- Why is CGIAR’s development of drought-tolerant maize so important?
- Why is it important to consider social factors in the development of new crop varieties?
- What is coastal carbon capture? How is it related to chemical weathering?
