OLD TECHNOLOGIES BUT<br />
NEW URGENCY<br />
The early impacts of climate change can already be<br />
seen across the globe. Despite global greenhouse<br />
gas mitigation efforts, many climate change impacts<br />
will be inevitable due to past emissions. We are<br />
all affected by climate change, but millions of<br />
communities in the poorest countries are being the<br />
hardest hit. Investments in environmental projects,<br />
such as restoring mangroves and reforesting slopes,<br />
could offer cost-effective solutions in helping the most<br />
vulnerable communities.<br />
