RBMA Block 2: Planning for The Future in which climate change and its adaptation and strategy are explained
2.2 – Mitigation, Adaptation & Synergy
Technological change and substitution that reduce resource inputs and emissions per unit of output. Mitigation has the potential to keep climate change threats at a moderate rather than extreme level.
Adjustment in natural or human systems in response to actual or expected climatic stimuli or their effects, which moderates harm or exploit beneficial opportunities. Adaptation will enhance the ability of different systems to cope with the remaining impacts, therefore modulating negative effects on sustainable development.
However, mitigation and adaptation strategies require actions at many levels – the international, national, local, and individual – and involve actors from the public and private sector, as well as educational institutions, NGOs and international organizations.
