"Adaptation is the only means to reduce the now-unavoidable
costs of climate change over the next few decades"
Stern Review on the Economics of Climate Change (2006) - Quotes Corner


The key role of Climate SouthWest (formerly known as South West Climate Change Impacts Partnership) is to raise awareness of the impacts of climate change, inform and advise on the challenges and opportunities of climate change in SW England, and develop practical adaptation responses.

We influence the strategies and plans of key partners and work with stakeholders across key sectors to enhance the region's resilience to the impacts of climate change.
