Abstract

The paper examines the relevance of the climate change adaptation and disaster reduction risk for supply chain processes in industry. Through a
structured review of academic literature two primary challenges are highlighted: first, non-consistencymethod in integrating formal attribution
of climate change adaptation and disaster reduction risk, and second in impacting with changing ecological environment and unpredictable
natural disasters for supply chain processes in industry can be described as unavoidable. In examining these two challenges, we arrive at a climate
change adaptation framework for industry supply chain as well as a framework of integratedclimate change adaptation and disaster reduction
risk for industry cluster. In offering this viewpoint, related climate change adaptation and disaster reduction risk, acomprehensive risk and adaptation management approach is proposed as a practical framing for above two challenges to address climate change impacts and risks for
supply chain processes in industry as well as promote the ability of risk and adaptation management in industrial operation process
