Taking the elements already put forward by the MPs Ronan Dantec and Jean-Yves Roux in the report by the French Senate\u2019s <em>D\u00e9l\u00e9gation \u00e0 la Prospective<\/em> (Delegation for strategic foresight) (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.senat.fr\/notice-rapport\/2018\/r18-511-notice.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2019<\/a>), the authors explain that this is due partly to the large number of actors concerned and to the relatively diffuse nature of the costs, and partly to the fact that it is often difficult to distinguish adaptation costs in the calculation from existing policies to improve resilience, which pursue different objectives.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Various studies conducted in recent years nevertheless constitute a solid working foundation on which to build initial needs assessments:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.strategie.gouv.fr\/english-articles\/cost-inaction-climate-change-what-do-we-know\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">estimates of the cost of inaction<\/a>, in other words the cost of the damage that will be caused by climate change if nothing is done to prepare for it;<\/li>\n<li>first elements to quantify the resources needed for adaptation, in particular taken from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.i4ce.org\/en\/projet\/quanti-adapt-quantifying-the-needs-of-adaptation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Quanti-Adapt<\/a> project.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Such an assessment appears increasingly necessary in the context of the growing importance of adaptation in public policies, and especially of preparations for the 3<sup>rd<\/sup> French National Adaptation Plan (PNACC3), expected for late 2023.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The first bricks of this plan were laid with the launch in spring by the French Minister for Ecological Transition and Territorial Cohesion of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.strategie.gouv.fr\/publications\/cout-de-linaction-face-changement-climatique-france-sait\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">public consultation<\/a> on the implementation of a reference warming trajectory for adaptation to climate change in France (TRACC).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 24px;\"><strong>Objectives : <\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In this context, the goal of this project is to <strong>contribute to the French public debate insights on the economic implications of different adaptation scenarios corresponding to the warming levels considered in this trajectory<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It will focus particularly on clarifying the state of knowledge on public financing needs for adaptation in three priority sectors: building, transport infrastructure and agriculture.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For each of these sectors, the goal will be to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>determine the best way to think about the economic consequences of the different warming trajectories;<\/li>\n<li>consolidate the quantitative and qualitative elements that are available or can be produced on these economic consequences according to different warming levels;<\/li>\n<li>initiate a discussion on these elements with key stakeholders.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There cannot be a single adaptation cost per warming scenario: in fact, the cost of adaptation depends not only on the level of impact for which to prepare, but also on the level and type of preparation implemented. Placing the cursor between the cost of impacts (i.e. of inaction) and the cost of adaptation (i.e. of anticipation) therefore implies collective choices that mostly still need to be made. The findings of this study are thus intended to open and inform discussions on the options available, rather than to choose between them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 24px;\">Technical<strong style=\"font-size: 24px;\">\u00a0partners:<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To conduct this project, <strong>I<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">4<\/span>CE<\/strong> works with <em>Observatoire de l\u2019Immobilier Durable<\/em> (Sustainable property observatory, <a href=\"https:\/\/o-immobilierdurable.fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">OID<\/a>, on the building sector), <a href=\"https:\/\/finres.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FINRES<\/a> (on the agricultural sector), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.setec.fr\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SETEC<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/callendar.climint.com\/fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Callendar<\/a> (on the transport sector).
