The Royal Institute of British Architects (澳门王中王) has responded to the latest .
澳门王中王 President Simon Allford said:
鈥淭his latest report from the IPCC once again lays bare the catastrophic impact of human-induced climate change on people and the planet. From heatwaves to flooding, extreme weather events show no signs of abating.
The construction industry and our clients have much to do, but to get there we need the Government to intervene now to ensure that our built environment can adapt to the changing climate. The asks are clear; ensure climate risks and building adaptation requirements are integrated into building regulations, provide adequate funding, and facilitate the sharing of best practice.
It鈥檚 only by adopting a two-fold approach 鈥� reducing carbon emissions and adapting to the changing climate 鈥� that we will be able to protect people and the planet from the most severe effects of climate change.鈥�
