Disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA) are central dimensions of government and society. Both agendas are often intertwined, as most disaster events are related to climate extremes. DRR is defined as actions taken to reduce the risk of disasters and the adverse impacts of natural hazards. DRR focuses on reducing the potential losses of people and assets.
CCA has focus areas such as the impact of climate change on ecosystems and biodiversity, and infectious diseases and health.
Research and development (R&D) is key to combating climate change. R&D ensures the continuous availability of renewable raw materials, which are used to produce sustainable fuels and raw material for plastics and chemicals.
The U.S. Geological Survey’s Climate Research and Development (Climate R&D) Program aims to advance the understanding of the physical, chemical, and biological components of the Earth system.
