The result was merge to Climate change mitigation. The default is Merging and then redirecting so closing just as Merge (non-admin closure) –Davey2010^Talk 23:54, 18 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The concept is largely a duplicate of Climate change mitigation, which I would count as the main article. Having several articles on one subject is confusing. I suggest that any unique content is merged with the other article and this one deleted. Shritwod (talk) 20:33, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete/Merge I agree. I worry that casual readers will only stumble upon these stub articles instead of the main one. --Mr. Magoo (talk) 20:41, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with and redirect to Climate change mitigation
- Climate change mitigation: 'Climate change mitigation consists of actions to limit the magnitude or rate of long-term climate change'
- Climate action: 'Climate action describes various efforts to prevent what is considered dangerous climate change'
- Ditto Climate Action Plan, which should (also) be a category/ies.

I disagree on doing the same with Climate Action Plan, which is a distinctly different and worthy of its own article. --David Tornheim (talk) 02:56, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

delete or merge, whatevs, this does seem a rather pointless article William M. Connolley (talk) 21:33, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and Redirect to climate change mitigation: for reasons stated by proposer. (I have not read either article, only skimmed.) I did search climate change mitigation and there is no wiki-link to Climate action. Probably those who worked on this this article were not aware of the other article. Notifying the writers of this article should be done if that has not taken place already. --David Tornheim (talk) 02:53, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into climate change mitigation. Note: climate change mitigation has been an article since 2005. Climate action was created last month. Also note that Climate Action Plan is a rather messy disambiguation page, not an article. — Gorthian (talk) 06:05, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and Redirect; I agree with reasons in the prior comments. Coastwise (talk) 09:37, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and Redirect to climate change mitigation, as this is largely a WP:CONTENTFORK of that article. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 00:56, 16 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
