abstract: Climate change in recent decades has become a
major concern of the global community. The Inter-
Governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
established in 1988 by the United Nations has
highlighted alarming trends in changes in global
temperatures, shifts in rainfall patterns, rising sea levels
and the impact of these changes on the livelihoods of
people, especially the poor. The changes will affect
sub-Saharan Africa the greatest and also Asia with its
very large population, most of whom are dependent on
agriculture.
