Adaptation to global change is being highlighted scientifically as well as internationally. Adaptation to global change may be regarded as a purposeful response to the impact induced by predicted or really occurred of global change in the function, process or structure of the Earth System, which is aimed to avoid loss from damage and to seek for benefit from the chance provided by global change.
