This book provides solution to the challenges of climate change in Africa. This research stemmed out of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2007) recent demand for the incorporation of the indigenous knowledge in curbing the menace of climate change as scientific method alone has not been able to proffer solution to it. The importance of indigenous knowledge has been realized in the design and implementation of sustainable development projects, little has been done to incorporate this into a formal climate change adaptation strategies (Ajani, et al., 2013). The need for this study therefore grows out of the recognition that scientific adaptation and mitigation alone, have not been able to resolve the challenges of climate change It is widely acknowledged that stringent mitigation efforts will not be adequate to avoid significant impacts of climate change (IPCC, 2007). It is therefore imperative to create stability between measures against the causes of climate change and measures to cope with its adverse effects (Stern, 2007; Pielke et al., 2007). Cocoa production was a major source of foreign exchange in Nigeria before the discovery of petroleum.
