Priorities for action

Throughout the chapters in this report, a set of major climate risks for Europe has been identified and evaluated based on their severity across time and the readiness of European policies to respond to these risks. The 36 major risks identified illustrate not only the complexity of climate risks facing Europe but also the multi- and cross-sectoral nature of the responses needed to mitigate these risks. This chapter proposes priorities for action, comprising both policy- and knowledge-oriented action, to mitigate the most significant climate risks that Europe faces and will face in the future, based on the findings in the previous chapters.This chapter is structured as follows. First, the inputs that informed the development of the priorities for action in EUCRA are highlighted. Second, the major climate risks for each of the five clusters described in Chapter 18 are presented and priorities for action for each cluster are identified. The final section presents several cross-cutting priorities and considerations for action beyond individual risk clusters.
