Final words from the panel::: 1. Put people first. Communities are already struggling and can offer solutions. 2. Must work in partnership. 3. It’s the people that will be bearing the brunt of the heat extremes, particularly the poorest. #climatechangebh #B&HAdaptation

@mcbrisbois.bsky.social speaking at @climatechangebh.bsky.social launch. To decarbonise Brighton & Hove, need focus on financing (e.g. green mortgages), politics (e.g. stories of good experience w. new tech) & delivery (e.g. who to trust to do the work). Check out also @sussexnrggroup.bsky.social
