Blue-green infrastructure is a nature-based approach to mitigating climate hazards in urban landscapes by using water and vegetation-based elements.

Climate adaptation is how we adjust to expected climate risks and impacts, in order to minimise damage to people and nature.

Climate mitigation is any action taken to reduce or prevent greenhouse gas emissions caused by human activities.

Climate resilience is the capacity to cope with climate risks and impacts while maintaining the different functions of society, ecosystems and the economy.

Nature-based solutions address societal challenges through the protection, sustainable management and restoration of ecosystems.

Transformative governance is the process of creating a desired shift in a system.

Urban adaptation plans set out how a city or local government will prepare for, respond to, and manage the impacts of climate change.
