Abstract
Briefly summarises the initial reports from companies with functions of a public nature e.g. water and energy utilities on how they are assessing and acting on the risks and opportunities from a changing climate. This is a result of the Climate Change Act 2008 providing the Secretary of State with the 'Adaptation Reporting Power' to encourage and influence the adaptation action of key infrastructure organisations.
