What is adaptation related to?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Adjusting to the effects of a changing climate
Climate adaptation means adjusting human systems, ecosystems, agriculture, water management, health services, or infrastructure to actual or expected climate impacts. Examples include drought-resistant crops, flood defenses, heat-warning systems, and efficient water use. Cutting forests and burning fossil fuels increase the problem; reducing emissions is mitigation, not adaptation.
