摘要: The changing climate is no longer an abstract issue, and the realities of its impacts are being felt across globe. Climate change affecting millions people, thwarting their efforts to escape poverty. Against this harsh reality, it will be imperative speed up integration risk considerations into policy, in order ensure that development proceeds along pathways resilient change. However, questions as type strategies, approaches actions required still generate divergent views on international policy arena. Closer attention a broader spectrum adaptation options urgently needed. Approaches go beyond words with potential informing guiding practices In particular Ecosystem-based Adaptation have proved provide flexible, cost effective broadly applicable alternatives for reducing such critical tool at planners disposal tackling threats poses peoples lives livelihoods
