Abstract	(WFD) to be implemented in the Member States, among these Denmark. The consequence of the directive is that the authorities shall prepare river basin management plans (RBMPs), which according to European and Danish legislation are subject to a strategic environmental assessment (SEA). A seemingly important environmental factor for the water sector is the repercussions of climate change, however, the prospect of the Danish authorities including climate change in their considerations are not good. This paper reviews the connections between climate change and water, in order to gain an overview of the consequences of climate change for the water environment and SEA of RBMPs. Based on this, the paper includes comments on the status for the inclusion of climate change in the preparation of the RBMPs and SEAs in Denmark.
