This industry consultation seeks feedback about climate resilience in the built environment from individuals and organisations across the sector.

Climate Change Adaptation Resilience Roadmap Consultation

Future consultation

What does climate resilience and adaptation mean for the built environment? What would a climate-resilient UK built environment look like, and how can the industry achieve it? We have a proposal, and we’re seeking feedback from individuals and organisations across the built environment sector.

In close collaboration with various organisations across all of the UK’s subsectors of the built environment, UKGBC is co-creating the country’s first UK Climate Resilience Roadmap for the built environment—a robust, evidence-based guide to help the industry adapt to climate change, protect people, and support ecosystems.

This is an opportunity for UKGBC members and the wider industry to review and feedback on the current proposals to ensure industry alignment and consensus on of this roadmap.

The consultation is open from the 20^th November 2024 until 12pm on 6^th January 2025.

The consultation process is based on an online survey, which takes 20 to 30 minutes to complete.

You will be able to provide responses to the consultation form from Wednesday November 20th 2024, when the consultation opens.

Respond to the consultation here.

This is an opportunity for all built environment stakeholders to provide feedback on progressed work, which includes:

Our vision for a climate resilient built environment
Definitions of core concepts
Information on hazards & risks
Industry aims and goals
Initial industry actions
Key metrics and indicators
Five key policy recommendations

We are seeking responses from both professionals with experience in climate resilience and adaptation, as well as those who may have little knowledge but are interested in incorporating these methods into their role or organisation

This is an opportunity for UKGBC members and the wider industry to share their perspectives on guidance which will go on to influence stakeholders across the built environment industry. As part of the consultation, you will be able to provide comments and ask questions, as well as gain clarity on the different sections.

UK Climate Resilience Roadmap

As climate change impacts continue to occur, the built environment must prepare for hazards such as heatwaves, floods, and storms whilst cutting carbon emissions. To start, we first need to understand how to measure our resilience, establish industry-wide targets and pinpoint essential actions and policies to achieve them.

Climate Change Adaptation

As the climate crisis intensifies and extreme weather events become more common, the UK’s buildings, cities and critical infrastructure, and the communities that use and occupy these, are in increasing danger. It’s vital to address how our buildings and infrastructure can be adapted to remain fit for the future.
