Climate Change Adaptation Strategies

Climate change adaptation strategies are actions taken to adjust to the impacts of climate change, minimizing harm and taking advantage of any potential benefits. These strategies can include building resilient infrastructure, such as flood defenses, improving water management, and modifying agricultural practices to cope with changing weather patterns. Communities may also protect natural ecosystems, like wetlands, which help regulate climate impacts. Overall, adaptation aims to enhance resilience—helping people and ecosystems withstand challenges like rising temperatures, extreme weather, and sea-level rise, ensuring safety and sustainability in the face of changing environmental conditions.
