Summary The report explores the critical connections among population dynamics, reproductive health, women's lives and climate change as they relate to greenhouse gas emissions and societies' resilience to the impact of climate change. The report describes what can be done to slow down--and possibly roll back--climate change and what must be done to help the poor adapt to the climate change that is already under way. -- from introductory letter presented by UNFPA and the Worldwatch Institute.
