Climate change adaptation and strategies: An overview

Anthropogenic activity has influenced global climate change since the industrial era and will continue to affect societies in the long term. Attached to this certainty, the adaptation agenda straightens its pertinence which, on the other hand, is followed by the importance of acknowledging not only its meaning but also the range of possible alternatives. Through a bibliographical review, this paper will analyse the concept of adaptation and discuss some of the most relevant suggested strategies. The goal is to contribute to diminish the gap between theory and action, being a step forward and closer to deciding on the best measures to advocate in light of climate change.
