Adaptation strategies

Cards (3)

  • Agriculture - farmers will have to adapt as some crops may not be able to grow in a warmer climate
    Eg new irrigation systems and change in farming pattern
  • Water supply - water transfer schemes could be used. This is where water is transferred from an area of water surplus to an area of water shortage
  • Reducing risk from sea level rise - areas at risk from sea level rise may use sea defences to protect the land from being eroded away
