Due to the recently changing climate and the impacts from severe events (smoke taint, heatwaves, droughts, frost, hail and floods) there is an urgent need for effective tools to tackle multiple risks and ensure higher levels of resilience. The Climate Change Adaptation Framework (CCAF), comprises a 5-stage process to help make climate-smart choices when considering competing adaptation options for grape and wine production. By applying CCAF to two different situations in Australia and Portugal, we demonstrate its potential for best practice in adaptation planning.
