In cities, climate change adaptation and mitigation are often treated as separate streams, one focused on preparing for climate impacts, and the other on reducing emissions, which can result in tradeoffs in benefits and missed synergies.

This booklet provides an introduction to adaptation and mitigation approaches and presents nature-based solutions as one of the key opportunities to integrate them.

This booklet is a summary of the NetZeroCities report ‘Futures deepdive - Integrating Adaptation and Mitigation’. To learn more, access the log in to the EU Mission Portal and full report here.
