Furnishing the Netherlands with the principle of natural climate buffers: the learning experiences.
Abstract
The Netherlands is increasingly confronted with periods of drought, heat and extreme rainfall due to climate change. Nature based solutions are areas where natural processes are the basis for adaptation to climate change. Nature based solutions have great potential, but are not yet always used in spatial planning and water management. This evaluation investigated what is needed to embed nature based solutions as a standard option in spatial policy and in water and nature management.
