Adapting to change and reducing your impact

Climate change is the biggest environmental challenge facing the world. Scientists agree it’s happening and that human activity is increasing it. Over the past century, global temperatures have risen – the 10 warmest years on record have all been since 1990. In the South West, climate change means hotter drier summers, warmer wetter winters, sea level rise and more extreme events such as heatwaves, droughts, floods and storms.

Businesses need to do all they can to reduce their carbon footprint and to ensure they are prepared to cope with these impacts.
