Adapting to climate change: Five countries set an example
How can we adapt to climate change? Reducing greenhouse gas emissions is a must, but governments, businesses and communities also need to prepare for a changing climate. The threat of climate change, the interlinked biodiversity crisis, and the multiple impacts of both, including on people, must be addressed as a core economic challenge. See how Denmark, Canada, Australia, Japan, and Mexico are adapting to deal with the risk posed by fierce storms, unseasonal heatwaves, excessive rainfall and rising sea levels.

ABOUT THE OECD
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an international organisation established in 1960 that works collaboratively to build better policies for better lives. Our goal is to shape policies that foster prosperity, equality, opportunity and well-being for all. Together with governments, policy makers, policy shapers, and citizens, we work on establishing evidence-based international standards and finding solutions to a range of social, economic and environmental challenges.
From improving economic performance and creating jobs to fostering strong education and fighting international tax evasion, we provide a unique forum and knowledge hub for data and analysis, exchange of experiences, best-practice sharing, and advice on public policies and international standard-setting.
