Nature-Based Solutions for Adaptation Mangroves planting Nature-based solutions (NbS) harness the power of ecosystems to address climate challenges, providing a sustainable and cost-effective approach to adaptation. These solutions integrate natural processes with human interventions to enhance climate resilience while delivering a range of co-benefits , including biodiversity conservation, carbon sequestration, and improved livelihoods. This section explores the principles of NbS, highlights successful case studies, and examines their role in adapting to a changing climate. Principles of Nature-Based Solutions Nature-based solutions (NbS) emphasize using ecosystems to mitigate climate risks while promoting sustainability, adaptability, and community engagement. A key aspect of these solutions involves restoring and protecting degraded ecosystems, such as forests, wetlands, and mangroves. This restoration enhances ecosystems' ability to absorb carbon, regulate water flows, a...
