Climate Change
The importance of reducing greenhouse gas emissions to try and minimise human-induced climate change is now widely recognised as one of the biggest challenges and priorities facing humankind. The need to support vulnerable communities in responding to the impacts of climate change is also gaining greater prominence. Finding appropriate technological and social solutions to these challenges is of pressing concern. The University of Greenwich is responding to these challenges with a range of research, consultancy, and educational activities, programmes and projects.
