[Excerpt]Executive summary. Key messages \textbullet Climate change (increases in temperature, changes in precipitation and decreases in ice and snow) is occurring globally and in Europe; some of the observed changes have established records in recent years. \textbullet Observed climate change has already led to a wide range of impacts on environmental systems and society; further climate change impacts are projected for the future. \textbullet Climate change can increase existing vulnerabilities and deepen socio-economic imbalances in Europe. \textbullet Damage costs from natural disasters have increased; the contribution of climate change to these costs is projected to increase in the future. \textbullet The combined impacts of projected climate change and socio-economic development can lead to high damage costs; these costs can be reduced significantly by mitigation and adaptation actions. \textbullet The causes of the most costly climate impacts are projected to differ strongly across Europe. \textbullet On-going and planned monitoring and research at national and EU level can improve assessments of past and projected impacts of climate change, thereby enhancing the knowledge base for adaptation.
