Restoring coastal areas through nature-based climate change adaptation strategies.
We know that coastal communities in Atlantic Canada are at risk from the hazards of climate change. This can have serious implications for people’s homes, livelihoods and the economy.
TransCoastal Adaptations’ framework for implementing nature-based solutions guides coastal adaptations and helps create resilience to climate change impacts along the Atlantic coast.
