Probably not,…
Because

Because

Because
by 2050
London will

Demand Reduction and the Built Environment
1. NO global effort to reduce carbon emissions so
unabated climate change:2-6ºC temperature rise

1. NO global effort to reduce carbon emissions so

But we have to

It is!

Although these conditions are new
to London, we can borrow from
other climates in the world
(Mediterranean, Netherlands)
How?
The UK Doctoral Training Centre in Energy

By choosing housing
interventions which both
and
mitigate
adapt to
climate change
How?

5 key interventions

birds to nest & bats to roost in gaps &
