Preparing for risk with online spatial tools
Paris Agreement
The Paris Agreement highlights the actions needed nationally and globally to strengthen resilience in the face of climate change and extreme weather events. The agreement acknowledges that some "loss and damageā is inevitable and beyond even the greatest efforts at adaptation, therefore strengthening capacity in resilience is increasingly crucial.
Mapping Exposure to Sea Level Rise is helping Pacific Island countries prepare for and adapt to sea level rise brought about by climate change. This is an excellent example of the kind of action needed to boost resilience, as identified by the Paris Agreement.
