Accounting for the Effects of Climate Change is Supplementary Green Book guidance. It supports the appraisal of climate risks and the necessary adaptation of policies, programmes and projects to include climate resilience and consider flexibility in decision making. Taking account of these effects is a requirement of public policies. The guidance is produced by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), in consultation with the Committee on Climate Change (CCC), the National Infrastructure Commission (NIC) and HM Treasury.
