  • strengthen synergies among adaptation measures and other environmental issues, such as floods and droughts, water scarcity, biodiversity conservation, air quality and resource efficiency;

  • increase the awareness of industrial and financial operators about the effects (threats and opportunities) of climate change on industrial production;

  • define opportunities of new green products and new green jobs related to the adoption of climate adaptation measures.
