Climate Adaptation Themes

adaptation is managing agriculture risks, profitability, resilience and opportunities in a changing climate
Health & Wellbeing
adaptation is minimising health and wellbeing impacts of climate change on people
Biodiversity
adaptation is building species and ecosystem resilience and functionality for long-term viability
Heat
adaptation is preparing for more extreme heat in the built environment and its impacts on people
Economy
adaptation is recognising finance, business risk, insurability and profitability underpin regional and rural economies
Storms & Flooding
adaptation is preparing for more frequent and intense storms and flooding
Fire
adaptation is preparing for earlier and longer seasons of more intense and widespread fire
