RESIST: Natural Climate Solutions in Finland’s Breadbasket
|
|
RESIST is an EU-funded project adopting a new practical framework to test climate adaptation pathways in four EU regions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In its Building Climate Resilience series, it has developed a story from Southwest Finland highlighting how climate change is affecting farming in an area vital to Finland’s food security. Prolonged droughts during growing periods and increased rain in the winter amplify hazards such as soil erosion and nutrient leaching. These impacts force local farmers to overhaul how they work the land.
