Countries all over the world, including the UK, are experiencing higher-than-average temperatures, more extreme weather, periods of drought, and sudden, heavy rainfall. Many of the people most affected by climate change are those who rely on the land to grow our food and crops. Globally, these smallholder farmers are already experiencing the worst impacts of climate change. Through innovation and collaboration, we can support our planet and empower farmers with the tools and resources to adapt and thrive. Planting spills over the roof of the rammed-earth building surrounded by beds of climate-resilient crops and resilient planting in a pink, purple and white palette. Key plants include Sorghum bicolor, Cajanus cajan, Ipomoea batatas, Cistus × purpureus and Crataegus monogyna. A dip tank makes up part of a system of rainwater harvesting, integral to the climate-friendly design.
