Build climate resilience with nature-based solutions.

As the impacts of climate change accelerate, Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) emerges as a powerful strategy to safeguard ecosystems, protect communities, and promote sustainable development. This timely and authoritative book explores how natural systems-forests, soils, wetlands, and coastal ecosystems-can be restored and managed to reduce climate risks and support biodiversity.

Written for professionals, students, and decision-makers in the fields of environmental science, climate policy, and sustainable development, this book provides practical frameworks for implementing EbA at local, national, and global levels.

Inside this book:
  • Clear definition of Ecosystem-based Adaptation and its relevance to climate adaptation and mitigation
  • Detailed analysis of EbA strategies across terrestrial, freshwater, and marine ecosystems
  • Exploration of biodiversity, soil health, and sustainable farming in enhancing adaptive capacity
  • Guidance on policy integration, financing mechanisms, and community-based approaches
  • Alignment with global frameworks including the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement

Why this book matters:
  • Provides an integrated, science-based approach to nature-based climate adaptation
  • Delivers actionable strategies for practitioners, researchers, and policy professionals
  • Ideal for use in environmental planning, natural resource management, and climate resilience programs
  • Supports implementation of green infrastructure and sustainable ecosystem management practices

If you're working to address climate risks and implement sustainable adaptation strategies, Ecosystem-based Adaptation is your essential resource.
