Climate change affects the landscape: practical knowledge from experience and research

From droughts to heavy rainfall and retreating glaciers – climate change is altering Switzerland's landscapes. At the same time these landscapes protect us from the consequences of climate change, such as flooding and avalanches. How can we safeguard these landscape services in the future? A new fact sheet from the Swiss Academy of Sciences (SCNAT) presents viable solutions and specific projects from the field.

🌍 How do we shape Switzerland in the face of climate change?

Climate change is altering our landscapes in ways that are both visible and tangible. Glaciers are melting, dry spells are becoming more frequent, and heavy rainfall is increasing. This also changes the services that landscapes provide for people and the environment: protection against flooding and avalanches, carbon sequestration, and intangible benefits such as recreation and enjoyment. How can we safeguard these landscape services in the future?

A new factsheet from the Swiss Academy of Sciences (SCNAT) presents viable solutions and specific projects from the field. It shows:

🤝 how landscapes help us to cope with climate change
🤝 which conflicts of interest and synergies arise
🤝 why early, coordinated and cross-sectoral action is crucial
