Solutions d'infrastructure naturelle pour la résilience climatique
L’infrastructure naturelle peut offrir la protection contre un éventail de risques liés aux changements climatiques, comme les inondations côtières et fluviales, la chaleur extrême dans les zones urbaines et la sécheresse. Elle peut aussi générer des avantages connexes, comme l’habitat des espèces et les possibilités récréatives.
L'infrastructure naturelle utilise des écosystèmes existants, restaurés ou améliorés pour générer des résultats en matière d'infrastructure, soit seule, soit en combinaison avec une infrastructure construite.
