Climate Services for a Net Zero Resilient World (CS-N0W)
is a £5.5 million research programme that will use the latest
scientific knowledge to inform UK climate policy and help us meet
our global decarbonisation ambitions.
CS-N0W aims
to enhance the scientific understanding of climate impacts,
decarbonisation, climate action and improve accessibility to the
UK's climate data. It will contribute to evidence-based climate
policy both in the UK and internationally, and strengthen the
climate resilience of UK infrastructure, housing and communities.
The programme will run for 4 years, from 2021 to 2025.
