摘要
· In recent decades, the increased temperatures reported in Europe and in the Mediterranean basin represent one of the clearest footprints of climate change along with increased frequency of heat waves. · These climate modifications put the environment and human activities under strong pressure with a resulting need for designing new adaptation and mitigation strategies. · The climate change challenge is unprecedented for humanity and is recognized as a priority topic for future research. Changes in the way we think and behave are critical challenges at the global and regional levels. © 2019 Pasqui and Di Giuseppe.
