Irrespective of the measures which will be put in place for adapting to climate change, it should also be borne in mind that some countries will be exposed to exceptionally high costs of implementation of the adaptation policy, and leaving these countries without any financial support may lead to an increase in the differences in development of different Member States.
Indiferent de măsurile ce vor fi luate în vederea adaptării la schimbările climatice, trebuie avut în vedere faptul că anumite ţări vor fi expuse unor costuri enorme prin transpunerea politicii de adaptare, iar privarea acestor ţări de sprijinul financiar ar putea duce la o dezvoltare neuniformă a diferitelor state membre.
