Climate Ready Clyde

Climate Ready Clyde is a cross-sector initiative funded by its member organisations and EIT Climate-KIC and supported by the Scottish Government to support Glasgow City Region flourish in its future climate. . Technical secretariat support is provided by sustainability charity, Sniffer. Increasingly they are impacted by the effects of climate change, both directly in the city region, and from changes happening around the world. Adaptation is a strategic issue for the city region in terms of securing inward investment and protecting the economy, as well as contributing to good place making, addressing inequality and minimising and avoiding costs arising from unplanned impacts. Climate Ready Clyde was established on the basis that adapting is cheaper, easier and more effective when done together. Our work involves: • Collaborating for collective impact – Ensuring society is resilient to climate change requires us to reach across silos, sectors, and agendas to create collective impact. Our members are committed to working together and with others in an innovative and inclusive way, so that CRC leads by example and effectively governs the adaptation space. • Informing and shaping the direction of the City Region and wider Scotland – Our members and the secretariat are at the heart of the debates and discussion of the future of the City Region and wider Scotland, helping to shape a climate resilient future, for all those who live and work in the City Region. • Supporting and enabling the City Region to adapt – Our work on evidence, guidance and resources, as well as on direct delivery help those in the City Region to step and go further, faster. • Leading in the global movement for climate action – We place Glasgow City Region's efforts to adapt on a global stage, showcasing the leading work to inspire and support cities and regions around the world.
