Despite the increasing frequency of severe weather events - heavy rain, hail, heat waves, hurricanes and floods - it's true that some people don't believe that our climate is changing, or even if it is, that it's anything to do with us.

A few people still don't think the world's best scientists canCastle tornado be right when they say that taking fossil fuels and burning them is reversing the process that made human life possible on earth. There's still a tiny chance they're right, but overwhelming evidence suggests they're very wrong indeed.

A great deal of work has been going on within the Borough on a range of projects aimed at raising awareness about, and making plans to cope with the effects of climate change.

The pages in this section give more information on just some of these projects.
