The goal of mitigation is to avoid significant human interference with the climate system, and “stabilize greenhouse gas levels in a timeframe sufficient to allow ecosystems to adapt naturally to climate change, ensure that food production is not threatened and to enable economic development to proceed in a sustainable manner.
A process in which adjustment is done to be able to adapt to the actual or expected changes in climate is called Climate change adaptation.Global warming is enhancing the process of climate change adaptation.
Adaptation is done by the humans to be able to sustain in the present condition. There are two types of adaptations - incremental and transformational.
To limit the effects or rate of long term climate change like global warming, certain actions are performed which are called Climate char mitigation.
Necessary actions like afforestation, emission of greenhouse gas reduction by humans etc are done to be able to control the harsh effect of climate change.
