10 IAPH Port Climate Action =Innovative approach= Introduce a variety of forms of new incentives to climate action participants Introduce a variety of forms of new incentives to climate action participants Promote new technology Promote new technology through joint-project, through joint-project, offering testing sites, etc. offering testing sites, etc. Combining separate climate Combining separate climate measures strategically

11 Prepare for Climate Change Impacts - adaptation action Mitigation alone is not sufficient, ports must prepare for impacts of climate change-Adaptation IAPH Port Planning & Development Committee tasked to study adaptation measures for ports Joint survey with US Stanford University on how ports see climate change as risk and how they prepare for.
