Mitigation and adaptation of climate change disaster

Abstract

Climate change is a long-term change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over time periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It can also be interpreted as a shift in average weather conditions or a change in the distribution of average weather events. Climate change can occur locally, in specific regions, or across the entire planet's surface. This change is characterized by at least four characteristics:, first rising global temperature, second rising sea levels, third extreme weather conditions and others, and four changes in rainfall patterns. Climate change is currently marked by an increase in the frequency of hydrometeorological disasters, such as decreased water availability and or even excess water discharge at other times, as well as forest and land fires. Based on future climate change projections, these hydrometeorological disasters have the potential to worsen threathening the resilience of water, food, and energy resources. Climate change is frequently associated with disaster due to an increase in hydrometeorological events over time. However, climate change is not the only cause. The disaster impacts are the results and indicators of more complex issues caused by larger environmental, social changes, and economic changes. These various disaster challenges in the future will necessitate earlier anticipatory preparations so that Indonesia and the rest of the world can adapt and mitigate appropriately.
