Climate Change in Africa: A Guidebook for Journalists
African journalists have critical roles to play in explaining the cause and effects of climate change, in describing what countries and communities can do to adapt, and in reporting on what governments and companies do, or not, to respond to these threats. Yet across Africa the media can and should do more to tell the story of climate change. UNESCO produced this book to help fill this important gap.

Pushed to the Limit: Evidence of Climate Change-Related Loss and Damage when People Face Constraints and Limits to Adaptation, Volume 2
This activity report provides the results of research which was done on loss and damage. Loss and damage occurs when there are barriers that impede planning and implementation of adaptation, and when physical and social limits to adaptation are reached or exceeded. Across the nine research sites, households struggle to manage climatic stressors on their household economy and their livelihoods. Despite their efforts to cope with the impact of extreme weather events and to adapt to slow-onset climatic changes, many incurred residual impact that they could not adequately manage.

Designing an Optimal 'Tech Fix' Path to Global Climate Stability: Directed R&D and Embodied Technical Change in a Multi-Phase Framework
This paper, prepared by UNU Maastricht Economic and social Research institute on Innovation and Technology (UNU-MERIT), focuses on the inter-temporal resource allocation requirements of a program of technological changes that could halt global warming by completing the transition to a « green » (zero net CO2-emission) production regime within the possibly brief finite interval that remains before Earth’s climate is driven beyond a catastrophic tipping point. It formulates a multi-phase, just-in-time transition model incorporating carbon-based and carbon-free technical options.

An Integrated Approach to Modelling Energy Policy in South Africa: Evaluating Carbon Taxes and Electricity Import Restrictions
This paper examines two of South Africa’s main energy policy considerations: the introduction of a carbon tax and liberalization of import supply restrictions in order to exploit regional hydropower potential. The results suggest substantial reductions in the country’s greenhouse gas emissions when these two policy changes are jointly implemented (relative to business-as-usual baseline scenario).
