    Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

    Abstract

    The growing evidence of the dangers facing communities across the globe prompted the UK Parliament to declare a climate emergency in 2019, but is policing prepared for this crisis? A new study by Dr David Lydon, Dr Katja Hallenberg and Violeta Kapageorgiadou of Canterbury Christ Church University suggests much more planning and briefing needs to done in relation to the future operating environment for policing, ethical dilemmas of policing a climate emergency, and developing thought leadership.
