Vulnerabilidade climática dos setores socioeconômicos dependentes do uso da água no Médio Paraíba do Rio de Janeiro frente às mudanças climáticas

Abstract

The present study intends to assess the socioeconomic challenges faced by GEE emissions in the region of the Middle Paraíba, Rio de Janeiro, in the face of the climate change scenario with worrying projections regarding extreme climatic events. In order to carry out this evaluation, the main sectors in the Middle Paraíba region will be surveyed and characterized; an inventory of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) will be drawn up; will be identified socioeconomic challenges and mitigation and adaptation actions to reduce GHG emissions in the region of the Middle Paraíba; and it is hoped that this work will contribute to future climate change approaches in order to guide strategies for achieving sustainable development in a regional portion of the state of Rio de Janeiro. Initially the proposal for the inventory will be based on the methodology of the GHG Protocol and the use of statistical techniques to evaluate the quality of data obtained. The aim of this work is to obtain a survey and characterization of the main socioeconomic sectors of the Middle Paraíba region; preparation of the GHG inventory for the region studied and proposition of mitigation and adaptation actions to reduce GHG emissions.
