Baltic Sea Region Climate Partnerships
An overview of projected impacts of climate change in the Baltic Sea Region and projects to adress the issue.
Climate change is one of the most pressing environmental issues today. Human influence on the climate system is clear, and recent anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases are the highest in history. Recent climate changes have had widespread impacts on human and natural systems. Continued emission of greenhouse gases will cause further warming and long-lasting changes in all components of the climate system, increasing the likelihood of severe, pervasive and irreversible impacts for people and ecosystems.
The publication maps some of the projected impacts of climate change on the Baltic Sea Region and is an overview of selected partnerships & examples of cooperation, aiming to achieve low-carbon development and increase resilience to the negative impacts of climate change. The publication is prepared by the CBSS Baltic 2030 Unit, in their capacity as coordinator for the European Union Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region (EUSBSR) Horizontal Action Climate
