This Resource Book has been written to provide policy- and decision-makers in Pacific Island Countries with a coherent, authoritative and readily accessible body of knowledge and resource materials that characterise the region’s resilience and vulnerability to climate and sea-level variability and change and identify a suite of proven and potential response options that are deserving of further consideration and implementation. Its second objective is to provide educators, outreach and related practitioners with an integrated and functional resource portfolio for use in formal education and professional development programmes and in support of efforts to enhance political and public awareness of the implications of global and regional variability and change for the Pacific Islands Region.

The Book comprises four main sections, reflecting the four principal dimensions of the climate issue – the changing climate, the observed and potential impacts, and the two broad categories of policy responses and actions, namely mitigation and adaptation.

SPREP is publishing the book in collaboration with the Global Environment Bureau of the Japan Ministry of the Environment, which funded the whole project. The book will be available in the first quarter of 2003. This prepublication Web version is made available as a service to those interested in the subject.
