Integrated analysis of climate change, land use, energy and water strategies

The authors argue that the lack of integration in resource assessments and policy-making results in inconsistent strategies and inefficient resource use. To remedy this, they introduce the CLEWs (climate, land-use, energy and water strategies) framework, which integrates the assessment of climate, land use, energy, and water strategies, noting that these resources both contribute to and are vulnerable to climate change.

• The authors argue that fragmented resource assessments and policy-making processes result in inefficient resource utilization and inconsistent strategies.
• The paper introduces the CLEWs (climate, land-use, energy and water strategies) framework as a method to improve resource assessments and address existing policy shortcomings.
• There is a reciprocal relationship between resource exploitation and climate change: the use of land, energy, and water contributes to climate change, while the systems providing these resources are highly susceptible to climatic changes.
