The complexity of the role of these drivers/triggers is reflected in the responses to other questions related to adaptation at the national level (Table 2.4). For those 24 countries that agreed or strongly agreed that the need for adaptation has reached the national political agenda, selected triggers are extreme weather events (selected by 22 countries), damage costs (selected by 14 countries), EU policies (selected by 14 countries), and scientific research (selected by 12 countries).
