Klimawandel und Regionalplanung

The ARL working group “Climate Change and Spatial Planning” conducted a survey among German regional planning authorities on how they currently treat the issue of climate change in their activities. The survey covered the availability of information on climate change, current possibilities and experiences in the field of mitigation, future challenges regarding adaptation to climate change and subsequent consequences for planning procedures. The results of the survey show that at present, regional planners mostly treat mitigation issues when considering climate change. Few experiences have been made regarding adaptation to climate change. The role of spatial planning in the context of climate change has not been defined clearly so far.
