projected 109 conditions, changes or consequences. Therefore, analysis of adaptation must specify thestimulus for adaptive responses that are studying, ie, "adapt to what?" (Figure 2). The system on whichthe adjustment is made must also specify. “Who or what adapts?” They may be individuals, social andeconomic sectors and activities, managed or natural or ecological systems or practices, processes orstructures of systems. The systems, once specified, can be distinguished by characteristics such as theirability to adaptation or vulnerability. Despite the lack of adaptation indicators it is key factor especiallyin local ecosystems.From: Adaptation to Climate Change and variability (Smith et al., 1999).There are still many questions related to climate change and its impacts on biodiversity, livelihoods andcountries, all these are questions in the debate, at local, national and international levels and it isessential to look for answers. Biodiversity, livelihoods and resources have a variety of vulnerabilities, todefined threats of climate change; there are few research efforts at this moment that allows at least,with a certain acceptable level of certainty of impacts on them. Adaptation has its own specificcharacteristics, needs and requirements, - scientific, economic, and political and so on, that must betaken into account in local adaptation strategies. There are no recipes, while mitigation is taken as aglobal adaptation, efforts should be based on the local. The unification of different managementframeworks has been used to improve institutional 110 management and strategic planning for the fightagainst poverty. Hazards and disasters that have occurred to this day, especially the impacts on humanlives and livelihoods around the world, requires today, even more of this integration, harmonization andunification of approaches in all fields and areas where possible to reduce vulnerability. The actions ofDRR - in its four main components - such as the CCA should include in a concrete way the benefits oftheir procedures clearly and with resources and clear indicators. Annex II presents some of the benefitsand "gates" of entry where you can see the complementarities between the differentapproaches 111 . Existing resources in developing countries are insufficient to make such adjustments andadaptation - is still unknown the exact impact-. To do this, Bali decided to consolidate the AdaptationFund (Adaptation Fund), whose secretariat will be in the <strong>Global</strong> Environmental Facility (GEF) and the109 Currently local capacity to generate non-physical and meteorological scenarios, but biological and socio-economic impacts ofclimate change is a significant barrier that must be bypassed in the local level. Economic capacities for these settings are verylimited and slow march of global agreements. Note A. Ponce.
