Abstract

Until recently, life in the UK had to adapt to a climate in which cold weather is a risk to life, health, and productivity. But that has started to change. Elizabeth JZ Robinson and Shouro Dasgupta document the effects of hot weather on the health of workers and the economy at large. The country needs to adapt to this new climate reality, while continuing to fight further climate change.
