New Zealand releases first climate adaptation plan

Wellington, Aug 3 (UNI) New Zealand launched its first National Adaptation Plan on Wednesday, which will ensure communities have the information and support they need to prepare for the impacts of the rising seas, increasing heat and extreme weather that are predicted to come with a changing climate.
The plan will enable people to have tools to prepare through a combination of community-based initiatives and national-level policies and legislation, so that when climate events occur their lives can continue, Minister of Climate Change James Shaw said in a statement.
Outlining the steps the government will take over the next six years to respond to climate risks, it brings together more than 120 actions that provide a blueprint for more resilient communities, Shaw said, adding, "The sooner we act, the more effective that action will be."
