TAILIEUCHUNG - Managing the environment in a changing climate

At the same time, the emergence of the HathiTrust, a shared digital repository consolidating much of the library-contributed content from the Google Books database, appeared to resolve many of the concerns the library community had regarding long-term stewardship of the mass-digitized book corpus. In combination with the large aggregations of low-use print collections managed in high-density library storage facilities, Hathi might bridge the gap between a well-documented decline in the use of academic print collections and the anticipated shift toward scholarly reliance on full-text electronic resources. . | Environment Agency enhancing. improving. cleaning. restoring. changing. tackling. protecting. reducing. creating a better place. influencing. inspiring. advising. managing. adapting.

Understanding of the nature timing and scale of these changes is imperfect but we know enough to assess the likely implications for what we do. This report sets out the Environment Agency s climate change risks and our plans to address them. It has been written in response to a direction to report from the UK and Welsh Assembly Governments under the Climate Change Act 2008. The Environment Agency s core business involves protecting and improving the environment of England and Wales for people and wildlife and contributing to sustainable development. It is important that we understand and respond to the factors that impact on these outcomes. Weather conditions are already a central consideration for us. .
