<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span>In my chapter in the upcoming <em>State of the World 2013: Is Sustainability Still Possible?</em>, I look at how climate change might intensify a variety of existing challenges. More extreme weather, water stress, and loss of land can undermine habitability, food security, and economic viability. Affected communities, regions, or countries may be able to cope with the pressures through more drought-tolerant crops, economic diversification, and other adaptation measures. But people may also feel the need to move, either as a coping strategy or out of desperation.</span></p>

Throughout the campaign, the fossil fuel companies' arguments were undermined by the fact that, apart from the failed cap-and-trade legislation, President Obama has a solid energy record. President Obama's challenge in his second term is to strengthen federal support for renewable energy while closely guarding taxpayers' money.</span></p>

Predicting an average temperature rise of one-degree Celsius by the 2020s and a two-degree rise by the 2050s, the models used in the report also anticipate that consistency in rainfall will change considerably, limiting access to water for the 80 percent of Central American maize and bean farms that are on rainfed land.</span> </p>
