Tunley Environmental to Mark Earth Day with Free CPD-Certified Webinar on Climate Risk and Resilience

1 month ago

To coincide with Earth Day 2026, leading sustainability consultancy Tunley Environmental is hosting a free CPD-certified webinar titled "Climate Risk Assessments and Resilience Planning for Business", designed to help organisations move from climate awareness to meaningful, strategic action.

Earth Day, observed globally on 22nd April, serves as a global reminder of the urgent need to address climate change. However, for many organisations, the challenge lies in understanding how climate risk translates into real business impacts. From extreme weather events disrupting operations to evolving regulations and investor expectations, climate risk is rapidly becoming a core strategic concern.


Frameworks such as the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) continue to shape corporate reporting and risk management, increasing the need for organisations to demonstrate how they are identifying, assessing and mitigating climate-related risks.


This webinar will explore how businesses can take a structured, data-driven approach to climate risk, embedding it into decision-making processes and long-term strategy. It will cover:


  • What a climate risk assessment and resilience plan are, and how they support better business decision-making
  • What the main climate risks are and how they might affect your business
  • How resilience plans can reduce the impact of climate risks to your business
  • The key global frameworks and standards shaping climate risk assessments, including CSRD, TCFD and SECR
  • Why climate risk and resilience planning are becoming critical services for organisations and which sectors are most impacted
  • An overview of Tunley's climate risk and resilience services and the typical process involved
  • Insights from a real-world case study and how climate risk assessment supported their resilience planning


The webinar will also include an interactive Q&A session with Tunley Environmental's sustainability experts.


Attendance is free, but advance registration is required.

Rising global temperatures are redefining sustainable construction. Architecture is being reframed as a form of public health infrastructure, with sustainable building design centred on heat resilience, passive cooling and resource efficiency in construction. Developers are integrating low carbon design and Whole Life Carbon Assessment into early project stages to minimise the carbon footprint of construction while maximising lifecycle performance.

The focus is shifting from energy efficiency alone toward a full understanding of Whole Life Carbon, Life Cycle Cost and embodied carbon as fundamental measures of building viability. Manufacturers are introducing low embodied carbon materials and renewable building materials such as bio‑based composites and low carbon construction materials, aligning with circular economy principles and end‑of‑life reuse in construction.

This evolution supports circular construction strategies and eco‑design for buildings that meet net zero carbon and net zero whole life carbon goals. BREEAM and BREEAM v7 benchmarks are reinforcing sustainable building practices through verified environmental product declarations (EPDs) and improved sustainable material specification.

Regulatory frameworks linking environmental sustainability in construction with economic resilience are accelerating adoption of carbon neutral construction and decarbonising the built environment. Cities incorporating green infrastructure and green building materials are demonstrating that low carbon buildings can deliver environmental, social and financial returns under tightening climate policies.

The modern green construction agenda rests on lifecycle assessment, life cycle thinking in construction and measurable carbon footprint reduction, positioning sustainable design at the centre of sustainable urban development. Sustainable architecture is no longer aspirational; it defines the future of construction.
