(Bloomberg) - The U.K. must adapt to warmer temperatures and more frequent storms that may damage roads and power plants while making champagne-style wines and apricots more viable, the government’s climate change adviser said.
Britain must prepare five key areas to ensure it’s ready for the more intense storms and increased flooding that global warming is projected to bring later this century, the Committee on Climate Change’s adaptation panel said today.
