Valuing Climate Adaptation Helps Us Orient Our Compass Toward Effective and Resilient Pathways
The impacts of climatic shocks are already being felt across Europe and are bound to intensify in line with further climate change. Even rapid and far-reaching progress on decarbonization cannot avoid the extent of climate change that is already locked in due to past emissions. These trends call for urgent climate adaptation investment strategies that can prepare countries for a wide range of climate hazards and their complex impacts across communities and economic sectors. However, formulating concrete investment strategies can be challenging as adaptation needs are vast and difficult to estimate. To overcome this challenge, this report reviews evidence-based prioritization and costing approaches and illustrates their application in a series of case studies. These approaches can support policy makers in identifying bankable and effective adaptation investments, raising and allocating adequate financing, and thus ultimately facilitating more effective climate change adaptation across Europe.

| description |
The impacts of climatic shocks are
already being felt across Europe and are bound to intensify
in line with further climate change. Even rapid and
far-reaching progress on decarbonization cannot avoid the
extent of climate change that is already locked in due to
past emissions. These trends call for urgent climate
adaptation investment strategies that can prepare countries
for a wide range of climate hazards and their complex
impacts across communities and economic sectors. However,
formulating concrete investment strategies can be
challenging as adaptation needs are vast and difficult to
estimate. To overcome this challenge, this report reviews
evidence-based prioritization and costing approaches and
illustrates their application in a series of case studies.
These approaches can support policy makers in identifying
bankable and effective adaptation investments, raising and
allocating adequate financing, and thus ultimately
facilitating more effective climate change adaptation across Europe. |
