Climate adaptation refers to the process of adjusting to the impacts of climate change. It involves taking measures to reduce vulnerability to climate change, build resilience, and cope with its effects on communities, ecosystems, and economies.

• Climate adaptation is crucial because it helps us prepare for and minimize the negative impacts of climate change, such as extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and disruptions to agriculture. It's about safeguarding our communities, food security, and economic stability.

Climate adaptation strategies include building resilient infrastructure, implementing sustainable agriculture practices, protecting natural ecosystems, and developing early warning systems for extreme weather events.

Climate resilience is the ability of systems—communities, ecosystems, and economies—to withstand and recover from the impacts of climate change. It involves adapting to change while maintaining essential functions and minimizing disruptions.
