  • Preparing London for rapid global warming (2)

    • Reference: 2019/12020
    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 20 June 2019
    In my priority question 2019/8850 I drew your attention to a gap in research on the heatwave risks to London businesses and their employees. This was identified in my report, Climate Change Risks for London, and the Mott McDonald report, Technical Assistance to Deliver London’s Climate Action Plan, that was commissioned for the GLA. Will you reconsider your response by undertaking work to address this gap or ensure that a relevant body does this, so that London’s businesses, particularly small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), are better informed and able to prepare for heatwaves and severe droughts?
