Our work on ‘derailment risk’ was covered by The Times in their article covering the run-up to COP30: Climate change talks under fire as Cop30 gathers in Brazil. SCRI’s director, Laurie Laybourn, was quoted:
“Cops 1 to 29 happened in one reality, in which climate impacts were growing and deadly but in pockets around the world. We’re now in a new climate reality in which impacts will destabilise entire societies.
The strategy has to shift to handle this new reality. We need to focus as much on adapting to the extreme weather coming down the track as on stopping it getting worse. Thankfully, those things can go together. Better designed homes cut energy use, but they’ll also keep you safe when extreme heat hits.”
