- Shifting weather patterns as a result of climate change, affecting rainfall and temperature, are likely to impact the ecosystem goods and services such as clean water and food on which people rely.
- Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA), involving the conservation, sustainable management and restoration of ecosystems can help people adapt to the impacts of climate change.
- Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) is a nature-based solution that harnesses biodiversity and ecosystem services to reduce vulnerability and build resilience to climate change.
- In order to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, reach global biodiversity targets and effectively address climate change, nature-based solutions should be treated as integral to adaptation strategies at global, national and local levels.
