Adaptation decision-making in the Nordic countries: assessing the potential for joint action
Summary
The paper examines the feasibility of a regional adaptation strategy for the Nordic countries, noting that while the region possesses strong institutional and economic capacity for resilience, the need for adaptation remains substantial.
Key insights
- The Nordic region is viewed as relatively favorable in a global context due to its stronger resiliency to climate change impacts compared to other geo-political regions.
- Projected climatic changes for the region generally involve increases in precipitation and mean temperatures, though these vary by region.
- The Nordic countries possess strong adaptation capacity due to their robust economies and institutions, and while progress has been made, the need for adaptation remains substantial.
