Summary
The BalticClimate toolkit provides climate science overviews, scenarios, and tailored tools for policy-makers, spatial planners, and the business community in the Baltic Sea Region. It offers projections for sectors such as agriculture, energy, and housing, alongside over 120 practical examples of 'win-win-win' solutions for adaptation, mitigation, and economic development. Specific tools include checklists for policy-makers, a Vulnerability Assessment framework for spatial planners, and a Climate SWOT analysis for small- and medium-sized enterprises.
Key insights
- The BalticClimate toolkit provides climate science overviews and projections for the Baltic Sea Region based on two 100-year scenarios: one characterized by continued rapid growth and intensive energy use, and another by slower growth and lower energy use.
- The toolkit offers sector-specific projections for agriculture, energy, housing (including water), the overall economy, forestry, health, and the natural environment, providing both regional and country-specific information.
- To support the identification of solutions that simultaneously benefit adaptation, mitigation, and economic development, the toolkit includes more than 120 examples across 15 different topics from the Baltic Sea Region.
- The toolkit provides specialized tools for three target groups: policy-makers receive planning checklists; spatial planners are provided with a Vulnerability Assessment framework and planning guidelines; and the business community is offered a Climate SWOT analysis with a life-cycle perspective to help formulate climate strategies.
