Abstract

Mediterranean countries have started implementing adaptation to climate change for a decade. This chapter aims to draw a panorama of this current adaptation effort in contrasted contexts of action – typically developed and developing countries. It identifies and discusses early developments of this endeavor, demonstrating its fragmentation and relative lack of ambition. It highlights current disconnections between practice and theory, and insists on the current minimal use of climate information in designing adaptation measures. It finally builds on the analysis of Mediterranean adaptation practices to provide guiding principles for the future elaboration of adaptation strategies in the region, focusing on timing, integration, and contextualization.

Fußnoten
1
It is interesting to note that the issue of adaptation was already addressed extensively in the text of the Convention in 1992; it is thus not an emerging issue.
 
2
To the noteworthy exception of a current World Bank study on the vulnerability of North African cities to climate change (www.​cmimarseille.​org/​FR/​Cities-and-climate-change.​php).
 
6
The majority of work is based on the A1B scenario because it is considered an average scenario, but the IPCC is clear: this scenario is not more likely than the others. Findings from an international conference on climate held in March 2009 in Copenhagen (“Climate congress: global risks, challenges and decisions”) actually states that the current trajectory of GHG emissions is beyond that of the most pessimistic scenarios, to which A1B does not belong.
 
9
Although it is clear that even within the basin, all countries do not have equivalent emission levels.
