How can EIA address the cumulative and long-term effects of climate change on vulnerable communities?
Climate change is a global challenge that affects everyone, but not equally. Some communities are more vulnerable to its impacts, such as sea level rise, drought, flooding, heat waves, and extreme weather events. How can environmental impact assessment (EIA) help address the cumulative and long-term effects of climate change on these communities? EIA is a process that evaluates the potential environmental and social consequences of a proposed project, plan, policy, or program. It can also provide opportunities for public participation, consultation, and mitigation. In this article, we will explore how EIA can incorporate climate change considerations and promote environmental justice for vulnerable communities.
