While most of the attention to climate change in industrialized nations is appropriately on reducing the emissions that cause climate change, developing countries generally have much lower per capita emissions while the impacts of climate change are likely to be much more severe. Many countries are calling for more resources to reduce the vulnerability to changes in weather, temperature, and precipitation that will produce some opportunities in some places but also great stresses on agriculture, water supplies, infrastructure, biodiversity, and public health. Climate Adaptation Works are experts across the range of adaptation issues: - Assess impacts and translate climatic changes into how they affect humans and the environment - Cost impacts - Evaluate options to reduce vulnerability and adapt to climate change - Undertake economic, financial, and policy planning for climate adaptation - Design measures and systems to finance, engineer, and implement adaptation projects and policies
