Integrating nature with technology to strengthen climate adaptation

Integrating nature with technology to strengthen climate adaptation In The News 26 Feb 2021 The European Commission released the new EU Climate Adaptation Strategy on 24 February, 2021. During the strategy’s introduction, Executive Vice-President for the European Green Deal, Frans Timmermans, highlighted the need to make adaptation smarter using data, as well as more systemic by focusing on local communities and ecosystems, and leveraging nature-based solutions (NbS). According to the EU Climate Adaptation Strategy: “Climate change is happening today, so we have to build a more resilient tomorrow. The world has just concluded the hottest decade on record during which the title for the hottest year was beaten eight times. People, planet and prosperity are vulnerable to climate change, so we need to prevent the un-adaptable and adapt to the un-preventable. And we must do it faster, and in a smarter and more systemic way.”

Why sustainable water management needs a systemic solution

In The News 26 Feb 2021 Ensuring that fresh water is available, in a sustainable manner, is fundamental to climate resilience.  Access to drinking water is a basic human need. The European Pillar of Social Rights places water and sanitation as one of the essential services everyone should have access to. Water also underpins our economy a fundamental part of agricultural, industrial and energy production.  Yet because of our changing climate, Europe is increasingly facing situations of either too much water, or not enough. Torrential rains and floods can devastate communities and infrastructure, while droughts damage crops, contribute to wildfires and dry up rivers, reservoirs and watercourses. Climate change exacerbates the challenge of shared water resources across borders, and low river flows, increased water temperatures, flooding and forest loss increase the risk of contamination and pollution of fresh water supply.
