2. Low-regret actions could be taken now
3. Long-term decisions not fully incorporating climate adaptation

Conclusions
1. Climate-proof planning needs to incorporate both mitigation and adaptation - all new developments need to be low carbon and also resilient
2. By not doing that, we are storing up more problems for the future and also losing opportunities
3. There are some good examples of climate-proof planning across the region
4. Lots of high quality support has been provided
5. There’s a long way to go to make all this mainstream and systematic
