Abstract

This paper describes the redefining climate change maladaptation using a value-based approach in forests. The narrow understanding of maladaptation may overlook the more fundamental reasons to adapt to climate change thus, it is suggested that maladaptation should be defined more broadly: adaptations that threaten those fundamental values.
