Abstract
Climate change has an impact throughout Europe, causing environmental effects such as increased flooding, windstorms and glacier retreat. This has key implications for a range of resources, for instance, water availability, and sectors, specifically transport, energy, tourism, agriculture, forestry, and health systems. Repercussions depend not only on the direct effect of global warming on European States, but also on the way it affects foreign countries, particularly neighbouring regions in the Mediterranean area.
