Adaptation Cost Estimates Way Off

EVery time a new report is released on the cost of financing adaptation to increasing temperatures and changing climate, the price tag goes up.

Recent estimates from the United Nations are that the annual cost of adaptation will exceed US170 billion.

With global neotiations including a major focus on the costs of dealing with climate change and of course, who will pay that cost, this is an increasingly important issue. Perhaps it will prove to be the issue that is hardest to resolve.
