  9. Cross-sectoral challenges a) Impacts of heat waves in cities and urban regions Sectors concerned: Spatial planning, health, energy sector

  10. Cross-sectoral challenges b) Increase in summer droughts Sectors concerned: Water management, agriculture, forestry, energy sector, biodiversity management, spatial planning

  11. c) Increasing flood risk Sectors concerned: Water management, forestry, biodiversity management, health Cross-sectoral challenges

  12. Cross-sectoral challenges d) Decreasing slope stability Sectors concerned: Water management, natural hazards prevention, energy sector, tourism

  13. Cross-sectoral challenges e) Rising snow line Sectors concerned: Natural hazards prevention, agruculture, forestry, energy sector, spatial planning, tourism

  14. f) Decrease in water, soil and air quality Sectors concerned: Water management, agruculture, forestry, energy sector, biodiversity management, health, spatial planning Cross-sectoral challenges

  15. g) Changes of habitats, biodiversity, and landscape Sectors concerned: Water management, forestry, biodiversity management, health Cross-sectoral challenges

  16. h) Vermins, pathogenes and invasive species Sectors concerned: Water management, agriculture, forestry, biodiversity management, health Cross-sectoral challenges

  17. Cross-sectoral challenges Improve ability to act i) Monitoring and early warning j) Uncertainty reduction and improvement of knowledge base k) Awareness rising, information and coordination l) Funding needs and financing options

  18. Outlook

  19. Adoption of the first part of the Swiss Adaptation Strategy on 2 March 2012 • The Federal Council adoptsthefirstpartofthe Swiss National Adaptation Strategy (objectives, challangesandfieldsofaction) • The Federal Council givesthemandatetotheDETECtodevelop an action plan (secondpartofthestratgy) in collaborationwithotherdepartementsuntilthe end of 2013.

  20. Develop action plan • Measures to improve knowledge base. • Measures to reach sectoral adaptation goals. • Coordinate sectoral measures to deal with cross-sectoral challenges. • Evaluation of financial needs and funding possibilities. • Monitoring adaptation progress, • Improvement of strategy. • To be adopted by the Federal Council at the end of 2013.

  21. Adaptation to climate change • Seize opportunities • Minimise risks • Increase adaptive capacity • www.bafu.admin.ch/klimaanpassung • roland.hohmann@bafu.admin.ch
