ICR Director Anders Oskal was in Rome last week attending the UNFCCC meeting - a three-day workshop in Rome on planning and practices to help communities, national governments, and organizations to adapt to the impacts of climate change. The workshop was held in collaboration with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).

"The impacts of climate change - such as changes in temperature and rainfall, increasing sea level and more frequent extreme weather events, such as droughts and floods - already have the potential to affect most of the world’s countries and can lead to tremendous losses in human lives and economic productivity," said Roberto Acosta, Coordinator of UNFCCC’s Adaptation, Technology and Science Programme.
