1. Tracking adaptation progress is crucial for informing the global stocktake and accelerating effective adaptation globally.
2. However, there is little knowledge on the effectiveness of adaptation policies and actions in reducing climate risks.
3. A new approach called GAP-Track is proposed to track adaptation beyond the country level and indicators, using expert judgement to assess adaptation challenges across multiple dimensions.

NAP Training Viet Nam - Vulnerability and Adapting to Climate ChangeUNDP Climate
This two-day workshop supported the Government of Viet Nam in building the necessary capacity to advance its National Adaptation Plan (NAP) process. The workshop closely focused on building National Adaptation Plans in the agricultural sector through multi-stakeholder collaboration, and increased knowledge and capacity on a number of topics including: prioritization of adaptation options, cost-benefit analysis, overview of the broad-based nature of climate change adaption impacts, analysis of challenges, and creation of an open discussion with key stakeholders on defining a road-map for the NAP process. The workshop was delivered using discussions and case studies to enhance interactive learning for participants, with supporting presentations by GiZ and SNV.

International commitments in response to the need to avoid climate change are now clear, and these commitments imply significant and potentially rapid changes in emissions, including in Australia. This will have implications for many sectors.
The science of probabilistic impacts of climate change are advancing rapidly and allows directors and their advisors to obtain a far more granular view of likely exposure than has ever been possible before.
This technological development in itself poses a risk and an opportunity to directors, who can either exploit or ignore new sources of data. Competitors and other external parties such as investors and researchers may be able to access a far more granular risk data on a third party’s physical assets.
There is now a substantial and rapidly growing body of research and expertise on the material financial implications of climate change – through direct impacts, transition measures, and related pathways including legal liability risk and technological disruption.
Financial actors and authorities are now voicing an expectation for increasingly clear disclosure of climate risks. This has accelerated rapidly in the past 12 to 18 months and is continuing to evolve today, both in Australia and among international markets.

Climate Change All over the World .pptxsairaanwer024
Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the average weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It encompasses both global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. While climate change is a natural phenomenon, human activities, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, have accelerated its pace and intensity

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

13-14 September 2022
OECD Headquarters and Conference Centre, 2 Rue André Pascal, 75016 Paris
In-person Forum with option for remote participation
The Global Forum, organised by the OECD-IEA Climate Change Expert Group (CCXG)1
, aims to promote dialogue
and enhance understanding among a range of countries on key issues relevant to the international climate
change negotiations and implementation of the Paris Agreement. The CCXG develops analytical papers and holds
regular Global Forums and other events that bring together practitioners and negotiators from developed and
developing countries, as well as delegates from inter-governmental organisations, the private sector, research
organisations and other relevant institutions.
This Global Forum will focus on adaptation in the global stocktake, authorisation and confidentiality issues under
Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, and the Mitigation Work Programme agreed to at COP26. There will also be
sessions on the outcomes of the global stocktake of the Paris Agreement, and on key issues on finance for losses
and damages. The session on enhancing implementation of adaptation action is organised in partnership with
the National Adaptation Plan (NAP) Global Network / International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD).
The session on moving to successful outcomes of the global stocktake is organised in partnership with the
Independent Global Stocktake (iGST). Participants will also hear about recent OECD work under the Clean Energy
Finance and Investment Mobilisation (CEFIM) programme as well as recent IEA work on the World Energy

every community, nor will it address the
impacts of rising groundwater and river
flows in every coast (6) or the existing and
increasing residual risks (e.g., when levees
fail). In low-lying coastal areas across dif-
ferent geomorphologies and levels of de-
velopment, retreat offers an alternative
option (see the first figure) that ultimately
removes vulnerability and risk in situ.
A DYNAMIC STRATEGY
Retreat is not easy, for various reasons,
including attachment to place, high costs,
lack of risk awareness, impacts on inland
settlements, and political resistance (3).
For example, retreat means sunk costs of
existing investments in public infrastruc-
ture and private property and does not ad-
dress the risk to cultural assets that cannot
be relocated. However, among the reasons
that make managed retreat beneficial is
that it enables long-term change at the
cal approach developed to do exactly this
and is increasingly used to support cli-
mate change adaptation decision-making.
To date, DAPP planning has been used to
address adaptation to SLR in several loca-
tions, including the Netherlands, the UK,
the US, and New Zealand, where measures
have included no-build zones and com-
munity and assets relocation (5, 6, 8). The
long-term perspective puts retreat on the
table next to protection and accommoda-
tion measures (see the first figure), avoid-
ing increasing investments that eventually
become higher sunk costs.
A first step in pathways planning is to
assess the hazard, vulnerabilities, and
uncertainties and to identify adaptation
options. An adaptation option may fail
to achieve objectives and/or may reach a
performance limit or threshold (also re-
ferred to as an adaptation tipping point) as
conditions change (e.g., SLR); a new or ad-
ways design is often done in a staged ma
with increasing depth of analysis. For p

The evolving and shrinking solution space to address sea level rise
The colored areas show how the solution space to protect or advance, accommodate, and retreat changes as sea level rises. Different drivers and soft or hard
limits shape this space.The figure highlights, first, a general narrowing of the solution space as a whole and, second, a change in the ratio between the three adapta
strategies, with retreat becoming dominant.This applies differently across coastal archetypes [derived from (1); see inset] owing to local contexts.

E.g.: are we able to adapt to the impacts/risks of a 1.5/2°C warming?
And at what costs (residual risks, adapta

We need ‘‘More of Be

How to track adapta

Several ini

a
ti
ves (OECD, UNFCCC
AC, UNEP AGR, etc.), most o
ft
en
with:
- A county-level entry point
- Based on quan

ta
ti
ve indicators
Facing similar issues rela
ti
ng to:
- Data/indicators (nature and
availability)
- Reluctancy from countries to be
ranked and compared (reading
their adapta

There is a need for complementary approaches (not on a
country-base, not en

rely relying on indicators, etc.)
5. - ‘‘Beyond countries’’: structured
around adaptation challenges/
priorities related to climate risks
GAP-Track (Global Adapta
ti
on Progress Tracker)
- Method works on 6
overarching questions reflect
multiple dimensions of
climate adaptation & context-
specificities
- ‘‘Beyond only indicators’’:
expert judgment approach
using a scoring system
(gathers multiple sources of
information) Literature (scientific, grey), policy documents, accumulated
human experience (expert’s own knowledge)

FIGURE 3. Detailed results for Mauritius.
In the process of running a test to:
- On 1 global system (coastal adaptation)
- Demonstrate the feasibility of the tool
- And relevance of the results to
complement other, country- and
indicator-based approaches
- By GST#1
7. So, in the end…
So that’s worth having mul
ti
ple approaches moving in
parallel (and coming together ahead of GST#1)
And others…
Without a clear understanding of where do we stand on adapta

the GST will likely not be a success…
