Two important European Competitive Projects are carried out by the Region of Crete on the Adaptation to Climate Change in agriculture and on the effects on coastal entrepreneurship. Moreover, the scientific institutions of Crete and other bodies have been conducting research into the issue.

At the same time, politicians such as George Alexakis, the Vice-Regional Director for European and International Affairs stress that the European Union's Action on Climate Change should be strengthened and be under a European Climate Agreement that incorporates the goal of territorial cohesion, as well as the need for strong Regional Strategies for addressing the problem and adapting to Climate Change. Finally, they often mention the efforts of European Regions to network for this purpose on the initiative of the CPMR Coastal Region Assembly.
