Climate Adaptation is key in the Bay Area (flash flooding, heat domes). Sustainable buildings help reduce the Urban Heat Island effect, ensure proper stormwater management, and improve health with cleaner indoor air. It's about adjusting to the unavoidable. #ClimateAdaptation

Water soaks here 🌱
Water floods here 🌧️

It’s not about more rain — it’s about where the water goes.
Green infrastructure lets rain soak in instead of flooding our communities.

Can air conditioning ever make sense in the UK? With hotter summers, better-insulated homes, and poor night-time cooling, the answer is… sometimes. The key is targeted, efficient cooling — not American-style overkill.

2025 gave the UK a serious drought. Reservoirs low. Rivers stressed. Hosepipe bans creeping in. Will 2026 be any better — or are dry years the new normal?

The cost of a fully-fitted out water bomber fleet suited to Australia’s needs is around $25m. We could fund that for 30 years with just one AUKUS sub down payment. Would come in handy on days like these.
