Landscape for 2030: How landscape practice can respond to the climate crisis

Globally, the terrible effects of climate change and biodiversity loss are becoming increasingly apparent. People across the world are demanding action, and slowly but surely, governments are responding.\r\n\r\nIn the UK, the government has pledged to become net zero by 2050, which fulfils the UK’s obligations under the Paris Agreement. But tougher targets alone do not reduce emissions. New policies, ideas, and on-the-ground innovations are needed to deliver real change.\r\n\r\nThe landscape profession is uniquely placed to tackle these twin crises. Our members have long been committed to creating places that deliver for people and nature, and the sector is already working hard to provide place-based solutions to climate change – from site-specific innovations to landscape-scale transformation.\r\n\r\nThis document showcases the integrated approach that landscape architecture represents, and its fundamental importance in securing our sustainable future.
