Correct Answer: D
Solution :
[d] Adaptation occurs in physical, ecological and human systems. It involves the following, changes in social and environmental processes, perceptions of climate risk, practices and functions to reduce risk and exploration of new opportunities to cope up with the changed environment. Adaptation and mitigation are complementary to each other e.g. if mitigation measures are undertaken effectively, lesser will be the impacts to which we will need to adapt.
