This is not a drill: police preparedness for climate emergency: summary report of a scoping study

    Research output: Other contribution

    Abstract

    This report summarises the results of a small-scale scoping study on the state of preparedness of the police, and public
    sector partners and agencies, for the consequences of the climate emergency. A self-selected cohort of 13 strategic, tactical, and operational levels of risk assessment,
    planning, management, and delivery were interviewed and a number of themes identified. These can be aggregated under four higher order headings of climate change impacts, why
    should the police care, prioritisation and preparation, and enabling and impeding factors. The report provides a brief discussion of each including a graphic representation of their relationship, and highlights recommendations and future
    research opportunities.
