Climate change is the most serious environmental problem facing humanity and, aware of how important it is to join the fight against this phenomenon, Cantabria makes its contribution to the common effort by laying down its actions for the fight against climate change in a strategic framework. Said strategy was drawn up after a lengthy process of participation and contains a large number and wide variety of actions organised into a set of strategic approaches.
 
The Cantabrian strategy is based on the fact that efforts must be made to reduce climate change, but on the premise whereby the consequences of an increase in greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere are unavoidable.

Accordingly, the framework of adaptation to climate change is a fundamental part of Cantabrian policies in the fight against climate change and its aim is to contribute to sustainable development in our autonomous community.
