Climate Ready Clyde

Climate Ready Clyde 2018/2019 Impact Report

Posted on 1 April 2019

Two years on from being established, Climate Ready Clyde has moved from a concept to an initiative delivering real results. From the launch of our risk assessment, to supporting our members with adaptation planning, the initiative is now ambitious, influential and effective; shaping adaptation in Scotland, and on the wider UK, European and Global stages.

Glasgow City Region now has its first Climate Change Risk and Opportunity Assessment. It provides a shared assessment of our risks and priorities, and is the solid foundation for our Adaptation Strategy and Action Plan. This is a real milestone, providing one of the most comprehensive evidence bases for any City Region in the world, and making Glasgow City Region one of the first places in the world to fully disclose its climate risks. Many others will, and must, follow.
