摘要
How do we as cities, nations, and global communities best respond to global climate change? Mitigation+urtailing greenhouse gas emissions- dominated initial discussions of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and international conferences on global climate change. Now that climate change has become a clear and present danger, however, adaptation-lessening the harm and maximizing the benefits of climate change-has received more attention. Analysis reveals that integrating the two responses, though challenging, may be the most effective approach. © 2003 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
