Sequestration, Adaption, Mitigation, Vulnerability

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

Building a sea wall to prevent ocean water from encroaching on a city is an example of climate change - Sequestration

(Define- We build structure to seperate the sea water and land)

Creating a carbon tax to provide incentives to reduce CO2 emissions is an example of climate change - Adaptation

(We promote reduction of CO2 emission by promoting the concept of carbon tax, this is called adaptation)

Planting more forests is an example of enhancing carbon: Mitigation

(Planting of more forest reduces the effect of CO2, this is called mitigation)

The tendency to be adversely affected or lack of ability to adapt defines climate change: Vulnerability

(If we are suceptible to some chemicals or pollutants it shows our vulnerability for them)
