KLIMATFÖRÄNDRINGAR I DEN FYSISKA PLANERINGEN
The purpose of this study is to get an understanding about how municipalities in Sweden integrate climate-change into the social planning; especially the risk of flooding. To get a good picture of the planning process, background about the following are given; flooding, social planning and protective measures that can be taken against flooding. Three municipalities in the south of Sweden is studied; Halmstad, Vellinge and Kristianstad. They have in their work progressed differently and Kristianstad is the municipality that already has taken measures to protect themselves against flooding. The other two have only started to plan for the future threat. Our conclusion is that the municipalities think about the climate-change but they see it as a problem that will show itself in the future. Therefore measures are not taken at the moment.
