Building resilience to a changing climate

What is climate change adaptation? Adaptation refers to the adjustments needed from individuals, communities and countries in response to changes to our planet’s climate. It is not the same as mitigation, more on which you can find here. If we reduce greenhouse gas emissions, do we still need

Annual publication which provides an up-to-date assessment of the UK climate

- published 25 July 2024  Highlights of the 2023 report The UK’s climate continues to change. Recent decades have been warmer, wetter and sunnier than the 20th Century.  2023 was the second warmest year on record for the UK in the series from 1884, with only 2022 warmer. Six years in the most recent
