Abstract: This paper reviews the adaptation components of the Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) submitted by developed, emerging, and least developed nations, and suggests how such measures should be aggregated into a global agreement. This paper warns against the folly of relegating global response to action by individual nations-partly and loosely supported by global financial and technological flows. For the Paris outcome to be legitimate, it must focus equally on adaptation and mitigation.
