== Mitigation ==
Actions aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions to limit the extent of climate change. This includes transitioning to renewable energy sources, improving energy efficiency, implementing carbon pricing mechanisms, and promoting sustainable land use practices.

== Adaptation ==
Measures taken to adjust to the impacts of climate change that are already occurring or expected to occur in the future. Adaptation strategies may include building resilient infrastructure, enhancing water management systems, protecting natural habitats, and developing early warning systems for extreme weather events.
