The ' Municipal Survey on Climate Adaptation 2023' report presents the findings of the representative national survey, done on behalf of the German Environment Agency. It provides a comprehensive and differentiated picture of the status and progress of municipal climate adaptation in Germany and thus serves as an important framework for political decision-makers at federal, state and local level. Related to the 2024 Federal Climate Adaptation Act (KAnG), the survey results show that municipalities have already started to adapt to climate change impacts, but also numerous challenges that still need to be overcome.
