Abstract: This article delves much on the contribution of vegetation and water bodies in the mitigation of climate change problems. Researches on the climate change phenomenon seem to have been oversubscribed but conclusive resolution to associated risks still need to be sorted out. Research motives on this article have not been out of tranquil interests, but quest to yield globally acceptable mitigation strategies that harmonize life risks brought about by global warming. Global warming is believed to emanate from excessive atmospheric carbon accumulation leading to natural climatic patterns alteration. Disruption of the natural climatic patterns then alter food production processes, leading to non - other than food insecurity. Synthesized search literature dominated by empirical evidences have been coined in the study to yield suggested climate change mitigation strategies. Suggested mitigation strategies are without doubt assumed to proffer sound positive contribution to global food security. Effective carbon sequestration to minimize global warming and investment in the creation of multi-open water sources that create humid micro-climates as a means to cab recurring droughts have also been rigorously suggested. Establishment of open water sources was strongly recommended in communities down to small cluster levels by encouraging policy makers to enforce damming that harnesses excessively lost run-off water. Such water is deemed to alter atmospheric water vapour of the arid and semi-arid regions and thus creating humid conditions favourable for most food production activities.
Keywords: climate change, food insecurity, mitigation, global warming, carbon sequestration.
