Invested by Europe: How to Play Defence Against Climate Change

Episode von Wege aus der Klimakrise von European Investment Bank · 31. März 2026 · 17 min

Climate action is about more than cutting emissions. Even if mitigation succeeds, societies and economies will continue to face climate risks for years to come. Climate adaptation is how those risks are managed.

In this episode of Invested by Europe, we speak with Roman Röhrl, climate change specialist at the European Investment Bank, about what climate adaptation really means and how it works in practice. The conversation explores how adaptation helps protect people, infrastructure and economic activity from climate hazards such as flooding, heatwaves and drought.

The episode looks at why adaptation needs to be built into investment decisions across sectors, how long‑term finance and clear standards can help scale up resilience, and the role that institutions, policymakers and the financial sector play in supporting climate‑resilient development.

🎧 Invested by Europe is the European Investment Bank’s video podcast exploring how Europe invests in its future — from climate and energy to housing, infrastructure and social cohesion.
