Abstract
There are frequent calls to integrate strategies for climate mitigation and adaptation regarding the unavoidable consequences of climate change. Taking an integrated view appears reasonable especially in planning practice; after all, we now have a broad range of experience concerning climate mitigation, in contrast to climate adaptation. This is shown, for example, by the results of a written survey carried out among regional planning agencies in Germany in 2008 by the ‘Climate Change and Spatial PlanningWorking Group’ of the Academy for Spatial Research and Planning (ARL). At the European level, the situation in the Baltic Sea Region is comparable.
