AMICA aims at combining measures to promote adaptation to climate change with preventive strategies to maintain and protect the global climate.

Local Adaptation Policies

Climate Impacts Overheating of urban areas Flooding of coastal areas Drought/Flooding in rural areas Flooding of urban areas

Online Adaptation Tool

Venice: Tide Level Monitoring Network

Stuttgart: Green roofs for a better city climate

Mitigation Evaluation of climate protection policies; “Peer reviews”: Analysis and recommendations of further measures.

Mitigation Scans

Integration of Mitigation and Adaptation Three main working areas: Construction Energy Spatial Planning

Construction: Heatwaves and cooling Photo:Stock.XCHNG

Energy: Replacement of oil heatings in flooding areas

Spatial Planning: Reforestation and wood energy

Spatial Planning: Adaptation versus Mitigation Foto: pixelquelle.de

AMICA Vision Adaptation and Mitigation are integrated in regional and local policies; National governments recognise the contribution of the local level and provide support.

Conclusions Mitigation and Adaptation should be addressed simultaneously - Synergy effects help both; There are several synergy measures on the local level; Adaptation measures are important, however they depend on parallel mitigation measures.
