Abstract

Managing climate risks can be done via two main strategies: mitigation and adaptation. Yet many studies and practices are increasingly confirming the complementarity of the two strategies. Although available research on mitigation and adaptation synergies remains dispersed and incomplete, examples that demonstrate promising potential for synergies have been identified. Within this perspective, this chapter aims to highlight some important questions that have to be answered in order to foster synergies between mitigation and adaptation approaches with positive implications in terms of sustainability. Researchers in the fields of chemical ecology of crop productivity and environmental management, with special reference to industrial ecology twinning mitigation and adaptation goals, aligned with policy and plan interventions, will gain insights into the unfinished agenda in this regard. Such important facets of integrated management, including peace with implications for quality of life determined by sustained access to information and capacity building on alternatives that are locally relevant, are also discussed.
