Long-term climate change is slowly occurring in an existing environment of high natural climatic variability. This joint understanding is key to effective decision making in guarding against climate change risks.
GHD helps clients understand the risks of climate change on their business and develops methods to mitigate risks posed by long-term impacts. Our team includes engineers, applied scientists, risk professionals, modellers, economists and social strategists to provide a full view of potential impacts such as increasing extreme weather events. We deliver an integrated service across hazard assessment, mitigation, and adaptation to impacts.
We work with our clients to map out risks and use our multi-disciplinary expertise to develop strategies and management plans for their business. We assess preparedness to help businesses enhance their resilience in the face of single event and increasing long-term impacts.
Our team identifies inter-dependencies to map out how impacts on other industries can impact on our clients. We then lead stakeholder engagement to ensure sectors work together to minimise climate change impacts on and from each other.
Through our team of climate change specialists and wider multi-sector expertise, GHD develops collaborative solutions to improve clients' resilience in the face of climate change challenges.
