Event
Adapting to climate change will go beyond knowing what the future temperature might be or how much more (or less) rainfall we might expect. It means understanding the sensitivity of landscapes to likely changes in weather patterns, and how the natural and urban environment responds.
This conference is aimed at UK institutions and businesses that are likely to be impacted by both climate change and the 2008 Climate Change Act.
Using specific case studies, we will highlight the broad range of environmental impacts due to climate change, the equally broad range of opportunities due to climate change, and the approach that can be adopted to properly assess and develop adaptation strategies.
