摘　　要：近年来,气候变化成为与人类社会发展和生存密切相关的全球性热点。澳大利亚受到气候变化的严重影响。然而,长期以来,澳大利亚政府在应对气候变化方面一直落后于整体发达国家。自2006年开始,以《地方政府气候变化适应行动》的出台为标志,澳大利亚政府的态度发生了积极的变化。文章对澳大利亚应对气候变化影响的相关背景和举措以及澳大利亚环境和水资源部出台的《地方政府气候变化适应行动》报告进行了介绍和评述,并结合该报告观点及我国实际情况提出了相应的启示和建议。Climate change is one of the greatest economic and environmental challenges of our times. Local government will be at the forefront of managing the impacts of climate change. The report, Climate Change Adaptation Actions for Local Government, released by Australian Government in 2006 outlines the potential impacts of climate change on local government functions and provides a valuable toolkit of responses including information on their benefits and costs. This paper presents the countermeasures undertaken by Australian government to reduce and adapt to global climate change and provides a lot of useful management experiences for decision-makers including local government understanding and engaging in the ongoing adaptation actions in China.
