Join the TCPA and the RTPI for the launch of the fifth edition of their authoritative guidance on planning for climate change.  

The webinar will include: 

• A case study from Winchester City Council, reflecting on how they have worked to secure climate policies in their new local plan (currently at examination) 

• An overview of the climate guide and the policy issues it addresses 

• Updates from the TCPA and the RTPI on their work on this agenda. 

This edition of the climate guide takes a new format, being formed of a series of topic resources grouped under the headings of introduction and policy context, climate mitigation, and climate adaptation. These cover policy across the four devolved nations, opportunities to reduce carbon emissions from buildings, energy and transport, and key adaptation issues for the built environment including overheating, flood risk and coastal planning. 

This webinar is for: 

Local authority planning officers, councillors and practitioners interested in how planning can deliver climate action.  It will also be of interest to those working on development plan documents including spatial development strategies, local plans, and neighbourhood plans.
