The document “ Defence in a Changing Climate ” (see related pages) sets out the context for Defence, including the climate change legislative framework – our Carbon Budget – and the climate security implications for Defence. It also sets out the potential opportunities for improving Defence capability by taking advantage of low carbon technologies.
The MOD Climate Change Strategy (see related pages) sets the strategic targets for the Department in order to both meet our Departmental Carbon Budget, and to adapt to a changing climate.
The MOD Climate Change Delivery Plan 2010 (see related pages) sets out the actions that the Department will take in order to meet the targets set out in the Climate Change Strategy. NOTE: The documents above are to be reviewed shortly
In line with other Government Departments, in May 2011 MOD produced a Departmental Adaptation Plan Update (see related pages). It shows progress against actions identified in our Climate Change Strategy 2010 which will ensure that we are prepared for the challenges of a changing climate. It also re-confirms our adaptation priorities for the future.
