Adaptation Actions Database (UK)
|
|
Description
|
An online searchable database that has been developed and is maintained by UKCIP staff. Adaptation
Actions contains examples of activities people in the UK have undertaken to exploit the opportunities
that climate change might provide or to adapt to the risks of our changing climate. The database only
includes examples of activities that have actually been implemented and does not include adaptation
activities that are "a good idea". Users can search the database to see what others have
done to adapt and get ideas on how to adapt to reduce their climate risks or exploit
opportunities.
|
|
Appropriate Use
|
To stimulate thinking on the types of actions that could be taken to adapt to climate change. Note
that this is not a definitive list, and the adaptation actions included in the database have not been
validated or endorsed by UKCIP.

Includes mostly UK but some international actions.
