This book presents selected papers from the 5th Global Summit of the Global Alliance of Disaster Research Institutes (GADRI)-Engaging Sciences with Action, which was held virtually and regionally from 31 August to 1 September 2021.
In the early 21st century, environmental risks such as climate change, biodiversity loss, resource scarcity, large-scale migrations, and conflicts over critical resources have become our lived reality in a world where nearly 8 billion people struggle to thrive.

For a relatively ephemeral feature of the landscape of those English uplands made of porous chalk and limestone, the artificial watering sites for livestock known as dew ponds have been the subject of a great deal of legend, misinformation, experimentation, and scientific research.
Cattle are currently the most important domesticated mammals, with populations numbering in the hundreds of millions and occupying large tracts of land, while the conservation of large mammalian carnivores is becoming a dominant discourse in modern geopolitics, also claiming large portions of the Earth's land surface.
This book is essential for understanding the Nile Delta, recognized as one of the world's most vulnerable deltas due to population growth and the impacts of sea level rise (SLR).
This book presents a multidisciplinary exploration of sustainable development, integrating themes such as environmental management, social sciences, and AI-driven technology.
The primary objective of this book is to explain the science, engineering and politics behind the environmental challenges that face the planet, its ecosystems and its populations, particularly in the light of a growing population, urbanisation and wealth divide.
Coastal environments are unique and highly dynamic ecosystems that play a vital role in climate regulation, support biodiversity, and highly impact human activities.
