Purpose of Review

The aim of this paper is to explore the nexus of climate change, land use, and conflict. A particular focus is placed on the human security risks associated with the three elements.

Recent Findings

Climate change has been perceived as a “threat multiplier,” directly aggravating human security risks, such as food and water insecurity, as well as indirectly contributing to (violent) conflict in regions vulnerable to climate change. In addition to climate change–related environmental risks, such as droughts and floods, land and land use can be affected by climate mitigation and adaptation measures. These include, for instance, large-scale renewable energy plants and relocation efforts.

Summary

It is not only important for decision-makers to take climate change impacts into account but also to assess the indirect risks associated with climate change mitigation and adaptation measures. For further research, it is hence promising to explore how conflict-sensitive approaches to climate change adaptation and mitigation can be developed.

气候变化,土地利用和冲突的联系

审查目的

本文的目的是探索气候变化,土地利用和冲突之间的关系。特别关注与这三个要素相关的人员安全风险。

最近的发现

气候变化被认为是“威胁倍增器”,直接加剧了人类安全风险,例如粮食和水的不安全状况,并间接导致易受气候变化影响的地区的(暴力)冲突。除了与气候变化相关的环境风险(例如干旱和洪水)以外,气候缓解和适应措施还会影响土地和土地利用。例如,其中包括大规模的可再生能源工厂和搬迁工作。

概要

决策者不仅要考虑气候变化的影响,而且要评估与缓解和适应气候变化有关的间接风险,这一点很重要。对于进一步的研究,因此有希望探索如何开发对冲突敏感的气候变化适应和减缓方法。
