8.1. Minimizar los impactos del cambio climático en las especies a través de la mitigación y la adaptación.
Subactions
-
8.1.1. Utilizar los escenarios de cambio climático global del IPCC para modelizar las amenazas a las especies e identificar posibles cambios en las áreas de distribución.
Solutions and case studies
Using ICT tools in participatory vulnerability assessments
Using Information Communication Technologies (ICT) tools to facilitate participatory climate change vulnerability assessments addresses the challenge of effectively engaging a wide range of stakeholders, including those at different literacy and capacity levels, to capture local and traditional knowledge as well as stakeholder input on priority needs and opportunities for resilience building in the Caribbean islands.

Functioning watersheds in the face of climate change
This solution promotes the integrated management of coastal watersheds that drain into the Gulf of Mexico and the Gulf of California by aligning the investments of public and private agencies to address climate change impacts and coastal and marine conservation. It is the foundation for enduring cross-sectorial coordination and local participation to maintain and recover watershed functions that deliver ecosystem services, which benefit cities and rural communities.
-
8.1.3. Identificar posibles refugios y corredores climáticos para las especies, dentro y fuera del área de distribución nativa, y asegurarlos a través de APC (véase también Meta 3).
-
8.1.4. Incorporar evaluaciones de vulnerabilidad en los planes de conservación y recuperación de especies.

Water and fire management of a peat swamp forest
The solution recovered natural conditions and protects 3,900 ha of unique peat swamp forest ecosystem. The conservation of Melaleuca trees found in this forest type is a national priority because they buffer floods, recharge aquifers and provide habitat for endangered wetland species. About 25,000 people living in the park’s buffer zone benefit through the provision of clean water and small cultivated fish.

8.1.5. Mantener o restaurar redes ecológicas que permitan que las especies se muevan hacia áreas climáticamente más adecuadas (véase también Meta 1).
Solutions and case studies
Regional Strategy on Coastal Erosion Management
The regional strategy addresses coastal erosion due to sea-level rise, policy and operational gaps in six East Asian Seas countries. National authorities assess the national setting, gaps and needs and identify directions and priority actions for addressing coastal erosion. National reports on results and recommendations are presented, discussed and agreed through public participation and a national consultation process with all stakeholders.
-
8.1.6. Utilizar diversas especies de plantas y hongos autóctonos en áreas plantadas para el secuestro de carbono y la mitigación y adaptación al clima.
