Document summary

The City of London Corporation’s climate adaptation strategy, the first of its kind by a UK local authority, aims to identify the priority risks associated with climate change and proposes adaptation measures which are designed to ensure that the City’s infrastructure and services cope under a changing climate. The strategy was developed in consultation with a large group of stakeholders who represented City of London Corporation departments, external service providers and City businesses, as well as our immediate neighbouring local authorities. The report identifies risks and opportunities related to managing flood risks, water resources, heat risks and air pollution, ground conditions and cross-cutting issues.
