Adaptation, mitigation and climate resilience: The Sustainable Development Goals 13 (SDG 13) and efforts to combat climate change in different parts of the world

Abstract

The Agenda 2030, published in September 2015, aims to promote actions related to the field of sustainable development. It is an action plan that aims to promote prosperity for people and the planet in several areas. The agenda has seventeen global objectives and 169 targets, among which is SDG 13 which deals with the climate issue. In this article we will present principles and strategies for climate mitigation, adaptation and resilience in different countries. There are countless green technologies developed in different countries with the aim of mitigating the effects of global warming and adapting societies to climate change. Strategies are being developed based on different knowledge, through breaking paradigms, through the appreciation of popular cultures and connections with science, based on partnerships between the State, market and the expansion of democratic spaces. To fulfill the objective, we carried out exploratory research, with a collection technique using primary and secondary sources on the subject.
