Climate Risk Adaptation

Climate risk adaptation involves making changes to reduce the negative impacts of climate change on communities, economies, and ecosystems. It includes actions like building flood defenses, modifying infrastructure, and adopting sustainable land use practices to cope with rising temperatures, sea levels, and extreme weather events. The goal is to increase resilience and ensure that societies can function effectively despite changing climate conditions. Adaptation is a proactive approach, complementing efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and aims to protect lives, property, and natural resources now and in the future.
