Planning to Live with Climate Change Member Engagement: Archive Page

16-Jun-09

This page provides access to information about the involvement of RTPI members in refreshing the New Vision for Planning and developing Planning to Live with Climate Change.

The Professional challenge:
What can you do about Climate Change?

The RTPI engaged with its members and others between February and April 2009:

to validate some broad principles about action to respond to climate change
to ask what members were already doing to tackle climate change and what more they hope to do in the future
to provide a basis for an action plan and projects to develop the response of spatial planning

The RTPI asked the following questions …

What are you doing and what can you do about climate change ?
How will your professional practice help to tackle the global issues ?
How will you engage in developing “Planning to Live with Climate Change” ?

Members were asked to respond by 10 April 2009. A General Assembly debate was held on 22 April 2009 and work groups were established to feed back by 29 April 2009.
