However, adaptation hasn’t received the great attention which it should have. Until now, most countries found that they can’t achieve the mitigation goal which they set few years ago, and climate change will occur definitely. Thus, adaptation gain the attention again. The situation of Taiwan is just like other countries that adaptation just gain the attention in recent year, so we lack of adaptation researches and method. We hope this study can arouse people’s attention of adaptation and introduce a research method through constructing the adaptation cost curve. This study select Sanzhi and Tansui, New Taipei City as the research site, and use seawall, sea reclamation, sand-fixed hedge, coastal windbreak, beach nourishment and retreat as the adaptation measures. According to the adaptation cost curve result, we found in the low sea level rise scenario, the soft engineering method will bring great benefits. In the high sea level rise scenario, we should rely on traditional engineering method, but may not be able to achieve the desired goal. Finally, mitigation and adaptation is equal important when we dealing with the climate change problem, and the attitude of facing climate change problem should be positive instead of negative.
