Climate change: costs of impacts and lines of adaptation

The present ONERC report provides estimates that the annual costs related to the climate change. They could reach several billion euros per year if no adaptation is undertaken in due time. Several ways and means of adaptation have been defined; they would reduce the negative impacts of climate change in France. Most of the adaptation measures are however largely dependent on the territorial characteristics, and will have to be studied and on a case-by-case basis at the local level.
