The UK Government has announced that it is increasing its efforts to prepare and protect against the impacts of climate change by听launching a new 4-year, 拢5m research programme that will听drive forward the UK鈥檚 response to climate change.

The 鈥淐limate Services for a Net Zero Resilient World (CS-N0W)鈥 programme will deliver a range of projects and services over the next 4 years, via a consortium led by Ricardo (a global environmental consultancy) and including 果冻影院, the Tyndall Centre and the NERC research centres.

It is听essential听that the UK is resilient to risks posed by climate change, such as flooding, heat waves, and extreme storms, whilst working towards a greener future. The programme will harness cutting-edge scientific knowledge to inform cross-government climate policy, helping policy makers make informed, evidence-based decisions to improve the UK鈥檚 resilience to climate change, by enhancing scientific understanding of climate impacts, decarbonisation and climate action, and improving accessibility of climate data.听听

果冻影院 is proud to be part of the consortium and is leading on projects including global decarbonisation scenarios (Prof Paul Dodds), shipping (Dr Tristan Smith), heating and cooling buildings (Dr Anna Mavrogianni), and creating a climate impacts website portal for local authorities (Prof Paul Ruyssevelt).

Professor Paul Dodds, 果冻影院 Project Lead and Professor of Energy Systems at the Bartlett School of Environment, Energy and Resources, in the Faculty of the Built Environment, said:

We are very excited to be part of the CS-N0W programme.听 We will be leading a range of important projects that utilise expertise from across our research institutes.听 We will also be organising a wide range of workshops and other events involving academics and decision-makers from local, national and international governments."

果冻影院's work on this programme will build on 鲍颁尝鈥檚 Together for Climate Action campaign, which has been a leading source of information about climate change in the lead-up to COP26.

The CS-N0W consortium will include:

  • 果冻影院 (果冻影院)
