气候变化与生计和贫困研究的认知

Understanding of Studies on Climate Change,Livelihoods and Poverty

本文介绍了PCC第五次评估报告中关于气候变化、生计和贫困研究的认知。研究者采用生计透镜的方法,评估气候变化与多维角度的贫困之间的相互作用。气候变化作为"威胁放大器",对于贫困人口及其生计增加了额外的负担。同时强调了气候变化可能产生新的贫困人口类群。通过对气候变化政策响应的综述,得出气候变化政策响应通常并不能使贫困人口受益的结论。

The understanding of studies on climate change,livelihoods and poverty （Chapter 13） in the FifthAssessment Report of IPCC is introduced.Researchers use livelihood lens to assess the interactions between climate change and the multiple dimensions of poverty.It illustrates that climate change,acting as a threat multiplier,adds an additional burden to poor people and their livelihoods.Moreover,climate change may create new groups of poor people.Climate change policy responses reviewed in this chapter often do not benefit poor people.
