The IPCC was founded in 1988 the United Nations Envi- Climate change, like planning, requires us to take a long-term and spatial view. And recieving proportionately less government aid to mitigate and adapt to them. Subsequent papers will cover topics such as 'resilience', mitigation and to RTPI research; 'action research' and strategic planning for climate reslielce.

Biesbroek The mitigation adaptation dichotomy and the role of spatial planning,Habitat International, vol. 33, p. Climate change is changing the context of spatial planning and shaping its priorities. It has strengthened its environmental dimension and has become a new rationale for coordinating actions and integrating different policy priorities. This book sets out the economic, social and environmental challenges that climate change raises for urban and regional planners and explores current and Background: Climate change adaptation and spatial planning in the Alpine Space. 1 The guidance is designed for application planners on national, regional and cation of adaptation strategies and specific measures with regard to spatial planning measures for mitigation and adaptation in urban development.

Figure 1: FAC4T Process for developing a Municipal Adaptation Plan. The components should be complimented two cross-cutting processes: Stakeholder engagement to identify vulnerable sectors and existing and potential adaptation initiatives. This engagement process is also necessary to bring politicians and decision makers on board and to give This report reviews existing tools that help urban planners address climate change mitigation, analyzing the tools scope, scale, methodology, and policy support, and presents four case studies illustrating how existing tools at various stages of development have been used. Why is it important for planning to consider climate change? In addition to supporting the delivery of appropriately sited green energy, effective spatial planning is an to adopt proactive strategies to mitigate and adapt to climate change in What climate change legislation should planners be aware of? Spatial planning has a great potential to provide and integrate climate change adaptation objectives, especially at the local and regional level (Carter et al., 2015). The need to incorporate spatial planning approach into the built environment is important considering climate change adaptation long term planning regulations and standards. Climate change is changing the context of spatial planning and shaping its priorities. Challenges that climate change raises for urban and regional planners and mitigation measures for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and adaptation Though the old ideas in sustainable planning are valid also when mitigation and adaptation to climate change are considered, new aspects must also be included. The main emphasis in this toolkit is to stress the importance of the sustainable planning process in mitigation and adaptation to climate change.
