European responses to climate change: deep emissions reductions and mainstreaming of mitigation and adaptation (RESPONSES)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2013,

EU action on climate change is now focused on accelerating mitigation efforts, while seeking to reduce risks associated with climate change impacts. To achieve the multiple goals of cutting greenhouse gas emissions, reducing vulnerability to climate impacts, and building mitigative and adaptive capacities, climate action needs to be mainstreamed across all EU policy sectors. As the scale of Europe ...
