Centre for Climate Change Adaptation
Climate change is the number one challenge facing the world today. As the climate changes, we need to change the way we interact with our environment. Sri Lanka’s natural environment and community and economic activities are climate-sensitive. To ensure the lifestyle that Sri Lankans enjoy is maintained into the future, we must continue to respond and adapt to meet this challenge.
Climate change and its potential impacts are increasingly accepted, but economic, social and political systems have been slow to respond. There is a clear and urgent need to speed up efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to adapt to unavoidable climate change - and our mission is to respond to this need. We try our best to bring together scientists, economists, engineers and social scientists who are working to develop sustainable responses to climate change. We work not just within the research community, but also with business leaders, policy advisors, the media and the public in general
