| Summary: | Adaptation and mitigation strategies are essential for addressing climate change impacts. What if such strategies are available, but the beneficiaries cannot take advantage of them? Recent evidence from certain regions in India raises concerns that disparities could lead to food and humanitarian crises in the future. The Global Goal on Adaptation (GGA), established in the 2015 Paris Agreement, is about enhancing adaptive capacity, strengthening resilience, and reducing vulnerability to climate change to keep temperature rise to a maximum of 2°C or 1.5°C. To qualify for financial support from participating nations, countries must have well-functioning early warning systems and comprehensive disaster preparedness and management strategies.
