LVSC has condensed the tools into an accessible spreadsheet with links to relevant websites.

LVSC recently produced a radial diagram that provides an overview of some of the key impacts of climate change on London. It shows the effects on the environment, population and industry. The diagram is complemented by a document which provides additional effects of global warming on London. The document demonstrates that urgent actions are required. Therefore, LVSC is calling upon its partners, policy makers, the statutory, private and voluntary & community sector to work together to bring about positive change and reduce our carbon footprint.
