We Punch Nature and It Will Punch Us Back; The Feedbacks of Climate change on People
by: Camilo Mora, Ph.D., Department of Geography, 51²è¹Ý MÄÂnoa
Human impacts on biodiversity are leading to extinction that largely exceeds natural background rates. This is impairing the capacity of ecosystems to deliver basic goods and services to humanity; and in turn, it is undermining efforts to improve human welfare. In this presentation, I describe global scale analyses into the impacts of climate change on marine and terrestrial ecosystems and how they are making a large fraction of the world’s human population vulnerable to loosing important sources of revenue, food and jobs. I also describe how Hawaii can be a global example to achieve responsible sustainability.
