Abstract
Building an adaptation strategy to put forward climate change adaptation in local governments is an important task. This study specifically describes examination of the following three points at issue: (1) relations between mitigation and adaptation; (2) crosscutting policy in the impact fields of climate change; and (3) necessity and concreteness of additional adaptation. Construction and verification of the theoretical framework were conducted for each point at issue.<BR>In comparison with messages related to adaptation policies publicized by the Ministry of Environment, this study emphasizes the following significant points: (1) mitigation and adaptation are defined as links to factors of vulnerability (exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity); (2) three levels of climate change adaptation (protect, minimization of impacts, and transformation), improved sensitivity, and adaptive management for longterm impacts are proposed to emphasize the additional adaptation; (3) not only technology and methods but also adaptation measures are exemplified.<BR>As further works, the precision of adaptation measures for feasibility should be improved for local governments. Additionally, increased recognition and understanding of adaptation strategy of climate change adaptation from local governments are necessary, including the relations between mitigation and adaptation, and the necessity for incremental adaptation.
