I write and speak on issues of climate change impacts and adaptation. I am able to comment on international climate negotiations and finance for adaptation, extreme events such as storms, floods and droughts and how adaptation has prepared us for these impacts, gaps and challenges to adaptation, and issues of justice and climate impacts. I regularly give interviews for radio and television including most recently for BBC News covering developments around COPs, as well as the European heatwave in 2025 and the record breaking UK summer.
