Climate change and its impacts are the new normal, yet until very recently most scholarly attention focused on mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions and not on adaptation strategies. While mitigating climate change is essential, adaptation is critical to the survival of the natural and built environment, which in turn is critical to human health, economic prosperity and government stability. This panel of scholars will start with the assumption that adaptation is an internationally critically issue and will explore adaptation strategies in law and policy.
