Under the Weather and the Rising Tide:Adapting to a Changing Climate in Asia and the Pacific

Under the Weather and the Rising Tide:Adapting to a Changing Climate in Asia and the Pacific

Abstract:
This booklet describes a number of adaptation strategies and actions being pursued by ADB, its country partners, and the international community. These strategies and actions reflect several important adaptation considerations for developing member countries, such as: country ownership, partnership synergies, integrating disaster risk reduction and climate risk management, and a no-regret approach.

Also highlighted are emerging trends in climate adaptation strategies, including the blending of mitigation and adaptation, disaster risk management and climate adaptation synergies, community adaptation tools, and applied downscaled modeling.
