Cambridge Econometrics helps clients assess the economic consequences of climate change and evaluate the benefits of adaptation. Through robust economic analysis and modelling, we translate physical climate risks into actionable evidence that support better policy, investment and strategic decisions.
Climate Change Adaptation
Climate Change Adaptation
Climate change is already affecting businesses, communities and economies through rising temperatures, drought, flooding and other climate hazards. As these impacts become more frequent and severe, organisations face growing pressure to understand how climate risks could affect their operations, investments and long-term objectives.

Helping clients make informed adaptation decisions
We help organisations to:
Quantify climate impacts
Assess how climate hazards such as heat waves, flooding, and drought affect economic activity, productivity, assets and supply chains.
Understand the cost of inaction
Estimate the economic impacts that arise from failing to adapt under different climate scenarios and identify where the greatest risks lie.
Evaluate adaptation options
Assess the costs and benefits of adaptation measures to support investment planning, policy, development and long-term resilience strategies.
Prioritise action
Provide clear, evidence-based insights that help decision-makers target resources where they will deliver the greatest impact.

Working with us
We leverage bespoke data, advanced analytics and economic modelling to enable you to navigate complex challenges and seize opportunities in a rapidly changing world.
Economic modelling
As a decision-maker, you need to find ways through the complexities of navigating the interactions of economies, societies and the natural environment, both now and in the future. Our state-of-the-art economic modelling can help you get there.
Strategic planning
Our data, scenario analysis expertise and economic modelling tools help you understand the policy landscape to develop your strategic plans.
Policy evaluation
Policy evaluation involves assessing past interventions to see how they fared in the real world. We use complex data analysis, econometric methods and modelling to disentangle policy impacts from other factors.
Impact assessment
Good policies rely on good evidence. Our expertise in impact assessment can help you understand and quantify the implications of different policy options.
Independent and trusted insights
As independent economic consultants, we’ve supported organisations and institutions worldwide to prepare for a changing climate. Through robust economic analysis, we quantify climate-related risks and evaluate adaptation measures, helping clients prioritise investments, strengthen resilience and make evidence-based decisions for the future.
