Abstract - Infrastructure networks have an severe effect by the physical impacts of climate mutability and change, but will also play an crucial role in building resilience to those impacts. Furthermost events explains the extensiveness of this potential exposure. For example, OECD [Organization For Economic And Development ] modelling of the potential impacts of a major flood in Paris found that 30% to 55% of the direct flood damages would be tolerated by the infrastructure sector, while 35% to 85% of business losses were caused by disturbance to the transportation and electricity supply and not by the flood itself. Climate change has very diverse effect on the infrastructure. If the  infrastructure will be climate resilient will help to reduce direct losses and reduce the indirect costs of disturbance created by the sudden climate change. New infrastructure should be hierarchic, planned, designed, built and set off in such a way to resist  the climate changes that may occur over anytime during their lifetimes. The old Existing infrastructure may need to be rebuilt , or managed differently according to the  given climate change. Lastly, additional infrastructure, such as sea walls, will need to be constructed to address the physical impacts of climate change. This additional infrastructure should or may be include traditional infrastructure, such as hard safeguarding and other engineered solutions, as well as natural infrastructure, such as wetlands and other naturally-based solutions. A wide range of actors, both in the public and private sectors, are taking action to strengthen climate resilience. This report highlights appears good practices and remaining challenges across OECD[Organization For Economic And Development] and G20 countries. It provides non-prescriptive guidance to countries as they find the way to enhance resilience in line with their national circumstances and priorities.
