Adapting to climate change: European action

31-07-2009

Action is necessary to reduce European vulnerability to climate change.

On April 1st 2009 the EU Commission presented a white paper on adapting to climate change with measures to ensure EU resilience toward the climate change. The white paper will be supplemented by actions in the EU member states and support the international efforts on adapting to climate change. Three discussion papers on the sector based approach to adaptation in regard to agriculture, health and water, coasts and marine issues have been presented along with the white paper.
