Summary

Climate change impacts are here to stay. From record temperatures and flooding to increased levels of subsidence, worsening air pollution and even the reshaping of our coastlines, we are being faced by climate change effects every day. Housing is on the front line of UK residents’ experience of climate change.

Despite this need, climate adaptation is not given the attention it deserves. In this report, we outline the need for government to work with energy suppliers, to ensure that residents can be prepared for a changing climate. The report outlines how suppliers can help directly in the household and the community as well as the role they should play in inspiring wider policy change from government.

This report was supported by OVO.
