Case Studies highlight resilience
2nd October 2012
A set of nine case studies is published today which illustrate how local authorities across the East Midlands are adapting to the changing climate, during this year of weather extremes. Every city and county in the region is featured in the set and the geographical differences highlight the different climate risks that are faced by urban, rural, upland and coastal areas. This new resource is one of the outputs from the £950k East Midlands Climate Change Skills Programme, supported by East Midlands Improvement and Efficiency Partnership.
Stepping up our business engagement
17th August 2012
Climate East Midlands is supporting businesses to become more resilient to severe weather and climate change. This is particularly topical for businesses given the prolonged heavy rain we’ve been experiencing, and prior to that a drought and several very cold winters. We are now talking to businesses and business organisations to develop a programme of events for businesses across the East Midlands. We are also refreshing our guide for businesses “Weathering the Storm”, and making preparations to launch a business resilience award.
