What is the difference between climate resilience and climate resistance in transport infrastructure?

Main Article Content

Andrej David

Abstract

In this paper, the author is willing to define resilience. Then, the paper will focus on developing transport resilience, adaptability, absorption, human factors, and recovery. Also, the author defines the resistance and its connection to transport. Finally, the author tries to build up the difference between resilience and resistance and help reveal the cognitive dissonance between resilience and resistance.
