A focused, solutions-oriented roundtable bringing together leaders and experts to advance practical approaches to London’s climate resilience and adaptation.
Extreme heat is no longer a distant climate scenario, it is a growing challenge for London’s buildings, infrastructure, workplaces and communities.
With around one million London homes potentially at high risk of overheating, and heat-related impacts already affecting productivity, public services and infrastructure, the need for practical adaptation is becoming increasingly important.
The London Climate Resilience Roundtable 2026 brings together perspectives from business, the built environment, infrastructure, academia and sustainability to examine how London can prepare for rising temperatures and strengthen resilience through practical, collaborative approaches.
shared Focus
