  • Abstract
    To thrive in a changing climate, businesses need to adapt. This presentation is a brief introduction to climate change; from present-day observations to future projections, and what they mean for mitigation and adaptation. The process of scoping adaptation options is explored, with particular reference to a recent collaborative project between the Met Office Hadley Centre and the energy sector.
