EU independent advisers say Europe is unprepared for worsening climate change and must ramp up adaptation investments to protect people and infrastructure from floods, wildfires and heatwaves, noting 45 billion euros in annual damages. They call for cross-border planning for higher warming by 2100, stronger early-warning systems, expanded insurance (potential EU-level reinsurance), and a new EU resilience strategy due later this year.
