IAEA’s technical cooperation supports the development of climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies

21/08/2013

Climate change is a significant global challenge, and it is becoming an important area of focus for the IAEA’s technical cooperation (TC). Through TC projects, IAEA Member States are learning to use nuclear techniques to contribute to international efforts to combat climate change. For example, natural tracers – stable or radioactive isotopes – can be used to assess the impact of climate change on communities and the environment around the world, thus providing valuable information to policy makers responsible for the development of climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies.
