Hence, a community’s current level of technology and its abilityto develop technologies are important determinants of adaptivecapacity. Moreover, openness to the development and utilizationof new technologies for sustainable extraction, use, anddevelopment of natural resources is key to strengthening adaptivecapacity (Goklany, 1995). For example, in the context of Asianagriculture and the impact of future climate change, Iglesiaset al. (1996) note that the development of heat-resistant ricecultivars will be especially crucial. Regions with the ability todevelop technology have enhanced adaptive capacity.
