Operating SIA - Climate change
Outline
Climate change is already showing its adverse effects in many parts of the world. Storms, flooding and extreme weather events in general are expected to occur more frequently in the future. Remedies to climate change are distinguished into mitigation and adaptation actions which are equally important. While climate mitigation actions focus on measures to reduce the emission of climate-damaging greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions at company or industrial park level, climate adaptation actions aim to better cope with the consequences of climate change. Through adaptation actions industrial parks can increase their resilience against the consequences of climate changes, e.g. droughts, water scarcity, storms, floodings.
