Why This Matters
Extreme weather is the new norm. Are you ready?
Why is this happening?
“No sector is on track to meet global climate goals.
We’re not just falling behind — we’re effectively flunking the most critical subjects.
None of the 45 indicators of climate action are on track for 2030.”
– State of Climate Action 2024
The lack of rapid and deep emissions cuts has resulted in it no longer being possible to avoid +1.5ºC of warming.
We are expected to pass the +1.5ºC threshold soon and the +2ºC threshold within the next 20 years.
Passing these heating thresholds poses severe risks to billions of people.
What you will learn
By the end of this workshop you’ll
Understand what living in a +1.5°C to +3°C world means for your region and your sector.
Gain localized insights into climate hazards: heat, drought, floods, energy disruptions.
Learn to assess the economic and business risks of climate change, and how to build the case for action.
Create a step-by-step resilience roadmap for the next 6–12 months
Understand extreme weather projections for your area
During this programme we will explore all the projections for your area using the latest data available. We will explore what your risks are for heatwaves, extreme percipitation, drought, fire weather and sea-level rise. This knowledge is essential in order to plan ahead and develop adaptation and resilience strategies.
Workshop outline
The Climate Reality Check
We like to start the programme with a reality check. You will be provided with a global and regional climate science update: where we are now and where we are heading. This will include a local climate snapshot: heatwaves, rainfall shifts, drought, flood risks.
Economic Impacts
During this section we will examine the projected impact on both the local and global economy at various levels of heating.
Local Risk Mapping
Using the latest data we will overlay localized climate projections with your operations, communities, or assets. This will help you identify exposure hotspots and critical vulnerabilities
Building Your Resilience Roadmap
Develop a clear 6–12 month action roadmap that outlines priorities, assigns responsibilities, and aligns budgets and partnerships to drive implementation.
