On December 12, 2015, the Paris Agreement, a new climate change regime was adopted to maintain the global average temperature rise at a level significantly lower than 2℃ compared to pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the global average temperature rise to 1.5℃ or less. By this agreement, each country is obliged to submit its Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDC), an increase in reduction targets every five years. Korea will also disclose its implementation plan to reduce the 2030 National Greenhouse Gas Reduction Goal (DNC) to 40% of actual emissions in 2018 to the international community at the 26th United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP26). A balanced policy between mitigation and adaptation is necessary to overcome not only to match the international requirement but also to provide a strategy to survive in the warming world as mentioned to the importance of not only reducing greenhouse gas emissions but also adapting to climate change. In the year 2022, there is an election for a new presidentship in Korea. It is a time to raise issues on the governmental response to the climate crisis to consider an adaptation policy for surviving the changing global environment by accepting the unavoidable global warming.
