Abstract: The climate change is an outcome of a set of complex phenomenon that could be enlisted in terms of both natural and man-made components or spectra in order to develop a strategic management planning for mitigation, since efforts in isolation cannot be sustainable. The man-made components imposing challenges may be minimized even on site-specific basis, if efforts are made systematically. An efficient adoption of conservation agriculture integrating with organic farming by providing locally available organic inputs as well as effective but beneficial soil microorganisms could be a reliable but partial solution to minimize the earth warming on site-specific basis. Soil being a powerful sink for GHGs (particularly CO2) needs to be investigated critically but continually. Shrinkage of land due to non-farming activities is a disastrous consequence favouring the speedy rate of climate change.
