Rechtliche und praktische Unsicherheiten bei der Durchführung des europäischen Klimaanpassungsrechts durch das Bundes- Klimaanpassungsgesetz (KAnG)

It installs the distinction in climate law between climate mitigation and climate adaptation and creates a framework for a systematic climate adaptation based on scientific analyses and a cyclical monitoring process. The KAnG establishes an obligation for the federal government and the individual state governments to develop climate adaptation strategies and concepts, requiring multi-dimensional planning. However, there are legal and practical uncertainties at various points in the KAnG with regards to the regulatory range, implementation and financing issues.
