Climate Mitigation and Adaptation Strategies for Cultural and Natural Heritage: From Conceptualization to Action explores how to integrate climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies with the preservation of cultural and natural heritage. Bridging the knowledge gap between environmental sustainability, energy transition, and heritage conservation, this book offers a detailed exploration of the intersecting challenges and solutions in these fields. Through a combination of evidence-based practices, real-world case studies, and a critical examination of policies and legislation, Climate Mitigation and Adaptation Strategies for Cultural and Natural Heritage: From Conceptualization to Action will equip policymakers, practitioners, and scholars with the tools and insights needed to implement sustainable development practices that safeguard our heritage while addressing the urgent challenges of climate change.
