The City wants to know what are the measures of adaptation to climate change that Murcia value as more effective and more urgent to implement in the municipality.

This prioritization is essential when structuring strategic planning until 2030.
Throughout 2017, the Local Agency for Energy and Climate Change, ALEM, has worked on the preparation of the 2030 Municipal Strategy for Adaptation to Climate Change through a very extensive and representative participatory process.
During the meeting, 11 meetings were held in which nearly a hundred representatives of the public sector, companies, experts, organizations, associations, universities and individual citizens participated, which allowed them to gather their points of view and proposals for the future.
As a result of this process, the municipality has an Adaptation Strategy that is articulated in four strategic objectives, aligned with four main approaches: governance;
society;
research and technology;
and good practices in urban and rural ecology.
Objective 1. Developing and implementing a planning model of the municipality of Murcia, agreed, integrated, balanced and resilient to climate change
Objective 2. Preparing society for the extreme risks arising from climate change
Objective 3. Integrating pilot projects, good practices, innovators and exemplars of adaptation to climate change in municipal management
Objective 4. Conserving the biodiversity of Murcia and its ecosystem services
The Strategy is structured in 11 goals, 25 lines of action and 61 adaptation measures that allow us to comply with the strategic objectives.
On the other hand, the Councilor for Urban Planning, Environment and Garden has taken the opportunity to expose the actions planned for 2018 on climate change, among which the first study of "Citizen Perception in the Municipality of Murcia on Energy and Climate Change ", with the aim of measuring the attitudes that the Murcian population presents towards various issues related to climate change and energy.
