The main objective of the Environmental Protection Programme of the Lubelskie Voivodship (current version 2020-23 extended to cover 2027) is to strive to improve the state of the environment, limit negative impact of pollution on the environment, protect and develop the values of the environment, as well as to perfect rational management of its resources.
It supports the implementation of Poland's goals and commitments at international level, especially in the context of the goals of the EU's climate and energy policy until 2030 and the Agenda 2030 goals.
The Environmental Protection Programme is a strategic document of the voivodeship,
which summarises important issues related to environmental protection, developed in accordance with sectoral and national documents.
The document describes 10 areas of intervention that correspond to individual components of the environment or areas affecting the state of the environment. The description of each area includes an analysis of the current state of the environment and sets goals, actions and indications for monitoring the progress of implementing measures.
The description of each area includes horizontal issues. Adaptation to climate change and extraordinary environmental threats are included in this horizontal format, but not as specific areas of intervention.

The Climate Adaptation Strategy sets out the roadmap for managing future climate risks, towards making County Tipperary more resilient in the face of a changing climate. Adaptation means that all communities and citizens must be prepared to respond to the current and future impacts of climate change. This requires adapting services, surroundings and lifestyle to meet these challenges.
In 2019, Tipperary County Council prepared a Climate Adaptation Strategy 2019 - 2024 in accordance with the provisions of The Climate Action and Low Carbon Development Act 2015 and the National Adaptation Framework (NAF), 2018. The Strategy allows the local authority to plan for, respond to and adapt to extreme weather events, while at the same time taking advantage of any opportunities that may arise in terms of economic development, through supporting development of green businesses. The approach is based around six thematic areas:
- Local Adaptation Governance and Business Operations
- Infrastructure and Built Environment
- Land Use and Development
- Drainage and Flood Management
- Natural Resources and Cultural Infrastructure
- Sustaining Our Communities.
Mainstreaming adaptation to climate change is a core consideration to ensure it is mainstreamed into all services and activities across the local authority. This includes informing the development of future policies and plans.
The Strategy will be updated before the end of its time period, evolving into the 2024 – 2029 Climate Action Plan.

Ypsonas Sustainable Energy and Climate Action Plan (SECAP) is a 10-year action plan from 2021-2030, defining a set of climate mitigation and adaptation targets that the municipality must achieve by 2030 and sets out a series of actions/measures that will help meet these targets.
For mitigation, the municipality set a 40% reduction target in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, which is underpinned by measures related to energy efficiency, sustainable transport and renewable energy.
On adaptation, the municipality set qualitative goals and targets to manage risks posed by extreme precipitation and flooding; extreme heat; water scarcity and drought. It set quantitative targets for increasing urban greenery (increase of 20ha) and stormwater management (increase of 4.5 km of stormwater pipes).
Measures include: 1) Mitigation of the Urban Heat Island Effect through an increase in urban green spaces and installation of high albedo surfaces (pavements); 2) Construction of stormwater management system and installation of permeable surfaces in public spaces to manage urban flood risk; 3) Conservation of important species in the valley of Limnatis; 4) Implementation of Nature Based Solutions in the upstream sections of the Marketou watercourse to manage flood risk; 5) Promotion of rainwater collection scheme. The SECAP undergoes monitoring every 2 years, progress is assessed, and both the targets and measures can be modified and/or increased, as well as new targets and measures added.

The North Aegean Region ERDF Operative Programme has 5 strategic goals:
1. Transformation of the Region's economy, with an increase in the size and productivity of businesses, mainly through smart specialisation
2. Protection of the Region's natural environment and resources - Adaptation to Climate Change - Risk prevention and management"
3. Strengthening the accessibility of the islands of the Region
4. Strengthening Social Cohesion - Development of Social Infrastructure
5. Social Inclusion and Combating Poverty
6. Strengthening Spatial Cohesion of the islands of the Region, through integrated and sustainable strategies and with the participation of citizens
The aim of the development strategy of the North Aegean Region, which is also the strategy of the ERDF Operative Programme Programme is the alleviation of the challenges that the region faces due to its specific nature of multi-insularity.
Focusing on environment and climate change, under Strategic Goal 2 the ERDF Operative Programme has earmarked 79.5 million to projects that include climate adaptation, with a focus on the most important climate hazards and vulnerable sectors, including coastal erosion, water resource management, forest fire management, and urban flash flood management. The climate change adaptation priorities aim to promote the resilience of the islands, and buffer them from the future impacts of climate change.

Faced with the climatic hazards impacting Brittany, and in anticipation of their evolution, specific objective 3.4 of the ERDF programme aims to reduce the region's vulnerability to climate change. This objective of adapting to climate change prioritises the region's major challenges to water resources, biodiversity preservation, land-use planning, the economy and health. It is broken down into 6 main measures that support the following types of action:
1) Improving knowledge: development of observatories, risk assessment, dissemination and transfer of knowledge;
2) Strengthening governance, building the skills of local players and organisational resilience: training initiatives, creation and deployment of tools, development of public policies;
3) Education and awareness-raising: awareness-raising and training for schoolchildren and their educational teams, mobilisation of citizens and the general public;
4) Actions to promote sustainable development, resilient networks and risk management: drawing up strategies, developing tools, experimenting with nature-based adaptation solutions, setting up information systems;
5) Adaptation of biodiversity and water management policies: modelling, tools, SafN pilot operations and experiments, environmental restoration;
6) Support for adaptation in economic sectors: modelling, vulnerability assessments and adaptation plans, pilot projects.
These measures make it possible to finance actions by all types of partners in Brittany.
