The Climate Change Committee has published some useful new briefing notes, commissioned by the Welsh Government, on adaptation to climate change. They cover

–  Adaptation and the nature emergency

–  Adaptation and social justice

–  Adaptation and decarbonisation

There is also a progress report on adaptation in Wales, which shows

  • there are some positive examples of plans in place, although this is not consistent across sectors.
  • Delivery and implementation are more limited and assessing progress is hampered by significant data gaps. For more than 50% of adaptation outcomes, the lack of indicator data prevents a full assessment of progress.
