Climate Change Adaptation in the UK Water Sector

A combination of growing population, land management practices, combined sewers, extreme rainfall events and public awareness of water pollution are creating a perfect storm for the UK’s water utilities – all against the context of stringent carbon reduction requirements. This event will examine the potential of available carbon-efficient management approaches. Topics include: Sewer catchment modelling and flow management SUDS / catchment approaches Storm water management Bathing water quality Ecosystem services WINEP
