지방자치단체 기후변화 적응정책의 특성 연구 - 자연재해를 중심으로 -

초록

The objective of the study is to examine local characteristics of climate impacts and adaptation and to suggest policy implications to build adaptative capability of local governments. Less attention has been paid to climate change adaptation but it is increasingly considered as a necessary complement to greenhouse gas mitigation. Adaptation is particularly of a local concern because climate impacts and vulnerability are location- specific, therefore developing adaptation strategies needs a bottom-up approach. Estimated damage caused by reported natural disasters and measures to reduce natural hazards are used as a proxy of climate impacts and local adaptive infrastructure. This study identified vulnerability types of local governments to climate change by cluster analysis and suggested adaptation options by their characteristics. The result of the analysis stresses local authorities take a differentiated and strategic approach to the climate change adaptation policy in local governments.
