Dear colleagues

 

A couple of resources for your information

 

Climate change adaptation options for Australian agriculture

 

The Australian agricultural sector is highly vulnerable to the effects
of climate change but has many options and opportunities to adapt,
according to this report from CSIRO. (340 pages) This report is
co-authored by Dr Mark Howden who was a keynote speaker at the National
Association of Agricultural Educators Conference at Deakin University in
January 2008.
