4. OPCC’s main goal: to monitor and understand the climate evolution in the Pyrenees with the aim of becoming less vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, and adapting to its effects OPCC's actions Seven actions: Climate, Biodiversity, Forests and Natural Hazards, Water, Remote Sensing, Geoportal and Adaptation And a cross action: Coordination, Communication and lobbying... in order to develop consistent adaptation strategies and to contribute to the adoption of the results and of the tools created by all administrations of the territory of the CTP.
