The Global Commission on Adaptation launched its flagship report, marking the beginning of a “Year of Action” that aims to accelerate ambitious adaptation action around the world. The UN Secretary General prioritized resilience and adaptation as one of the action areas for the 2019 Climate Summit. Meanwhile, the IPCC’s special reports on Climate Change and Land and on the Ocean and Cryosphere reinforced both the need for and promise of adaptation.
