Key messages

When choosing the appropriate climate adaptation measure, it is important to
    consider its feasibility and impact on the environment and society in order to
    select the measures that best fit the local context and that can be implemented
    with the available resources.

A combination of different measures from all three categories (grey, green and
   soft) is more effective in reducing risks than a single measure, as they each have
   different advantages and disadvantages and complement each other.

It is advisable to look for measures that address multiple risks at the same time.

Local best practices serve very well for inspiration and often address risks that also
   concern my own working environment.
