Address climate risk effectively
Climate risks, from excess heat to increased flood risk, are no longer theoretical, proving to be real risks to public health and wellbeing, as well as economic performance. RLB can demystify climate adaptation – using frameworks such as ISO 14091 Adaptation to Climate Change for organisations, or ISO 14092 Climate Adaption for cities and communities – and help you address climate risk effectively.
Implement action plans tailor-made for you
Whether you manage organisations or assets, climate adaption planning and strategies can help you take short, medium and long-term actions to address physical, social and financial risks represented by a rapidly changing climate. Alongside robust net zero strategies, we can support you with tailored climate adaptation and action plans that fit your level of risk and ability to adapt.
Understand and report your climate risks
A comprehensive understanding of your climate risks – both physical and transitional, covering regulations, competitive advantage or other non-physical impacts – is a growing demand of stakeholders, investors and regulators. We can support your climate risk assessments through frameworks such as the Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), now absorbed into wider International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) ESG reporting.
Make better, greener choices
Buildings are at the forefront of climate risks and our solutions to address them. Building design choices have a big impact on our ability to adapt to climate change. Our experts can support BREEAM-compliant or ESG-aligned real estate climate risk assessments, and action recommendations for new builds, refurbishments and complete asset portfolios.
