Samenvatting
The report highlights a number of ways in which the core considerations of cultural heritage intersect with the ambitions of the Paris Agreement. For instance, historic and existing buildings represent an important source of embodied carbon and their reuse is a key strategy in many regions for avoiding future emissions associated with new building construction. Cultural heritage supports climate adaptation in a variety of ways, including learning from past social adaptability to environmental change and leveraging pride of place and social values to guide contemporary resilience planning. Climate change is already impacting communities and heritage globally, and these trends are rapidly worsening. The report provides a framework for systematically cataloguing the impacts of climate change drivers on six main categories of cultural heritage, in order to aid in evaluating and managing both climate risks to cultural heritage and the positive role it can play as a source of resilience. The report is designed to provide a benchmark against which the heritage community may measure their work on climate change as well as a tool for climate policy-makers to increase their engagement with the culture field. Another aim is to encourage gap-filling research. |
