Climate Change Adaptation APAN Photo Contest 2014


APAN wants you to take your best shot and show us: “How do you see climate change adaptation in your life?”

What is Climate Change Adaptation?
Adaptation is one of the two main policy responses to climate change; the other is mitigation (i.e. reducing greenhouse gas emissions). Adaptation measures help lower climate risks and build resilience to climate change. Many countries and communities are already putting in place such measures to adapt to the negative impacts of climate change, from building seawalls to protect against sea-level rise to planting different crops to ensure better yields.
