We welcome today's publication of the UK Government's 2022 Climate Change Risk Assessment, based on our Independent Assessment of #UKClimateRisk last June. We look forward to seeing Govt's next #Adaptation action plan to urgently build UK resilience. More:...
#ICYMI - Our report yesterday highlighted 8 priority climate risks which require urgent action in the next 2 years. These are based on our assessment of where further action & integration of adaptation into major policies is now critical. https://bit.ly/3cIVd2k #UKClimateRisk
The Independent Assessment of UK Climate Risk (CCRA3) considers more than 60 risks and opportunities affecting every aspect of life in the UK. We find that the overall level of risk facing the UK has increased in the last five years. #UKClimateRisk (1/10)

We are now live on YouTube as we kick off our launch event for the UK’s Independent Assessment of UK Climate Risk report. Join us and learn more about the risks and opportunities facing the UK from climate change. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLHEIcmph50 #UKClimateRisk
In 15 minutes, join the Committee live on YouTube as we present our Advice to Government and provide an overview of the assessment, we’ve produced with over 130 organisations and 450 people. #UKClimateRisk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLHEIcmph50
By better understanding and preparing for the coming changes, the UK can prosper, protecting its people, its economy, and its natural environment. Read more about the importance of climate adaptation in our latest advice to Government. https://bit.ly/3gB1j5Z #UKClimateRisk
Action to improve the nation’s resilience is failing to keep pace with the impacts of a warming planet and increasing the climate risks facing the UK. That is the view of our latest comprehensive assessment – More: https://bit.ly/2TALNza #UKClimateRisk
Today we publish new, independent Advice to Government on climate risk, as part of a comprehensive assessment of the risks and opportunities facing the UK from climate change. Read more: https://bit.ly/35pqqmU #UKClimateRisk
New blog: Why do we look at high warming levels when assessing the risks of #climatechange to the UK?
Our Head of Adaptation, @KathrynABrown, sets out to answer a question we're often asked. Have a read here: https://bit.ly/2TKsArp

Yesterday we launched a new website, which is the repository for new research we’ve been coordinating on climate risk #UKClimateRisk.
This is a key step towards the evidence report for the UK’s third Climate Change Risk Assessment #CCRA3 – due in 2021.

We're also publishing seven new pieces of research (led by independent consultants) which will feed into next year's UK Climate Change Risk Assessment Evidence Report. Take a look at them here: https://www.ukclimaterisk.org/ccra-research/ #UKClimateRisk [2/3]
Today we're launching a new #UKClimateRisk website which will host the key evidence underpinning our 2021 assessment for the UK Government of the risks and opportunities facing the UK from #climatechange. Take a look! https://www.ukclimaterisk.org/ [1/3]
New ASC report concludes #UKClimateRisk has increased, and a new stronger National Adaptation Programme is needed in next 12 months. 5/15
Last year, the ASC identified six most urgent areas of #UKClimateRisk www.theccc.org.uk/tackling-climate-change/... UK Govt endorsed these in January 2017. 4/15

Lord Krebs sums up key themes of today's research conference on #ukclimaterisk, sets out CCRA3 priorities. Many thx to all for attending!
There is fundamental gap in responsibility for communicating climate change risks+impacts to public say participants @ #ukclimaterisk event
Next UK CCRA (due 2022) must better bridge mitigation+adaptation issues, partic. in area of land-use say participants @ #ukclimaterisk event
Improved assessment of systemic, interrelated, integrated #climatechange risks emerging as key priority for nxt #ukclimaterisk report (2022)
Final plenary session @ #ukclimaterisk event @royalsociety -Wide range of research priorities for CCRA3+ reflections on highs+lows of CCRA2
Idea is to be as consultative+transparent as possible in process of developing UKCP18 says Prof Boyd @ #ukclimaterisk event at @royalsociety
CCC's Head of Adaptation @DanielJ88 runs through top 6 areas of inter-related climate change risk for UK identified by #ukclimaterisk report
Series of @NERCscience funded research projects (+input from 100s of scientists+reviewers) helped to inform 2000-page #ukclimaterisk report
Lord Krebs, Chairman of the CCC's Adaptation Sub-Committee, reminds audience at #ukclimaterisk event of many pillars of CCRA evidence report
Quick reminder: Full #UKclimaterisk evidence report published this summer available here: www.theccc.org.uk/uk-climate-change-risk-a... incl. summaries+graphics!
Outputs of today's event will inform coordination of research to feed into next Climate Change Risk Assessment (due in 2022) #ukclimaterisk
Today we're with research organisations,Govt officials+stakeholders to discuss how to fill evidence gaps identified by #UKClimateRisk report
