Adaptation Gap Report 2022: Too Little, Too Slow - Climate Adaptation Failure Puts World at Risk

Flag for IGO United Nations Environment Programme on November 1st 2022
Climate change is landing blow after blow upon humanity, The international community must urgently reduce greenhouse gas emissions through a transformation of energy, industry, transport, food systems, financial systems and so much more. However, as the 2022 edition of UNEP’s Adaptation Gap Report: Too Little, Too Slow finds, we must also urgently increase efforts to adapt to the impacts of climate change that are already here and to those that are to come. The report finds that global efforts in adaptation planning, financing and implementation are increasing incrementally. However, they are not keeping pace with increasing climate risks.
