… on Emissions Scenarios (SRES). The projections for London, shown below, are based on a ‘medium emissions scenario’; they assume no political intervention and that regional carbon emissions continue to increase. Due to the uncertainty attached to modelling climate change, the graphs demonstrate the varying levels of probability of the projected outcomes. The table below defnes what is meant by each…

…. Croydon has high a high proportion of properties with poor energy effciency standards, meaning there is great potential to reduce carbon emissions from this sector. A detailed analysis of energy effciency installations since 2005 and potential measures to 2015 has been carried out. So far partners within the ECCP have enabled a saving of 6.13Kt/CO2/yr as a result of cavity wall, loft and top up loft…

… centre benefts from regeneration while local character is preserved. There will be sustained investment in core infrastructure to enable this growth while also helping to reduce carbon emissions and adapt to the impacts of climate change. But sustainability is not just about development. Residents and businesses will also be inspired to take greater pride in their environment and to take…
