The Danish Climate Adaptation Strategy

 The Danish Climate Adaptation Strategy

Climate change occurs gradually over a very long time, and the societal consequences of climate change will depend on when and to what extent such changes occur. In any event, the design of infrastructure and buildings will have to be adapted to accommodate the expected changes in climate. The government's aim in adopting its Climate Adaptation Strategy is therefore to ensure that Denmark manages to adapt to climate change in time.
