preparedness  

Définition(s)

  • Preparedness for global warming and climate change requires multilevel planning at the international, national, local, and individual levels to deal with the direct effects of climate changes in temperature, precipitation, wind, storm patterns, and sea level, as well as the indirect strain on world resources leading to migration, famine, and conflicts. While mitigation strategies like reducing greenhouse gas emissions are a start, they do not take precedence over readiness to respond to natural disaster emergencies associated with the impact of climate change (e.g., intense storms, flooding, wildfires, and public health) or the necessity of dealing with future environmental pressures, the decreasing longevity of infrastructure with roads, bridges, waterworks, buildings, and facilities requiring earlier replacement, repair or modifications to remain safe for use.
