Long Description
|
(From ChatGPT) Low-regrets options planning is a decision-making approach that prioritizes actions that yield net benefits across multiple plausible futures, minimizing the risk of wasted investment even if conditions change or impacts are less severe than expected.
Key characteristics:
Robust across scenarios: Works well whether future changes are moderate or severe.
Cost-effective: Delivers value now, even without precise predictions.
Flexible and incremental: Can be scaled up or adapted later.
Reduces vulnerability: Often improves resilience while offering co-benefits (economic, social, environmental).
Suitable for uncertainty: Common in climate adaptation planning where exact impacts are hard to predict.
