Climate change is a global problem promoted by global warming. It leads to uncertain climatic conditions such as floods, droughts, landslides, high waves, and sea level rise are increasingly common with increasing intensity, resulting in casualties and economic and ecological losses. Adaptation and mitigation are two complementary strategies for responding to climate change. Adaptation is the process of adjusting to the actual and expected climate and its effects to reduce or avoid harm or exploit profitable opportunities. Mitigation is the process of reducing emissions or improving greenhouse gas sinks (GHGs), thereby limiting climate change in the future. Both adaptation and mitigation can reduce and manage the risk of climate change impacts. However, adaptation and mitigation can also create other risks, as well as their benefits. The strategic response to climate change involves consideration of climate-related risks along with additional risks and benefits of adaptation and mitigation measures.

The climate change problems should be addressed with local-based management. We provide a platform to discuss the strategies of local adaptation and mitigation actions, called as International Conference on Climate Change. It accommodates the new related inspiration about how to minimize the climate change on local-based approach. This conference provides access to valuable information. This is an excellent international forum for sharing knowledge and research results in theoretical and practical aspects of climate change mitigation and adaptation .
