have not been examined specifically in relation to the development of adaptation. National
systems can be said to differ along formal structural lines, such as the unitary-federal
organisation of the state or along a spectrum of centralisation-decentralisation, as well as
along informal characteristics, such as the general decision-making culture

bined effect of global income growth (77%) and global population
growth (69%); both drivers of increasing energy-related CO2 emis-
sions. The long-term trend of declining CO2 emissions per unit of en-
ergy supplied reversed after 2000. {WGIII 1.3, Figure SPM.2, SPM}
