A report, commissioned by the Green party on the London Assembly, paints a bleak picture of life in the capital as global temperatures increase.

The report found:
Half of the underground stations in central London will be “at significant risk of flooding” with the Northern and Central lines most affected.

One in five schools in the capital will face a high-risk of flooding.

Two-thirds of London flats will face extreme overheating by the 2030s.

London is the most vulnerable city in western Europe to floods, extreme cold, windstorms and drought as global temperatures rise.
