The London Climate Resilience Review July 2024

The Review provides an assessment of London’s climate resilience and makes 50 recommendations for action to guide London’s preparations for more frequent and intense climate impacts.  Following increasing severity and frequency of climate impacts, including the flash floods in 2021 and the 40-degree heatwave in 2022, the Mayor of London commissioned an independent review to take stock and make recommendations to guide London’s preparations for more extreme weather.

The Review’s 50 recommendations, which call for strategic, delivery, capacity building or investment actions, are directed to stakeholders across London, including the Mayor of London, UK government, local authorities and the community and voluntary sector. The Review gathered evidence from individuals, communities and organisations including the NHS, Transport for London, London Fire Brigade, the Metropolitan Police, Borough Councils, the GLA, UK Government, NGOs, the financial services sector, sports and cultural institutions.
