How much progress have countries made on adaptation to the risk of extreme temperatures?

Extreme temperatures are defined as more frequent and severe heat waves or more frequent and severe cold conditions.

Groundwork is defined as steps taken to prepare for and inform adaptation responses. This includes impact and vulnerability analysis, strategic planning, and decision-making processes.

Adaptation is defined as tangible steps taken to increase the resilience of communities, for example legislative action, public awareness programs, or infrastructure improvement.
