© Crown copyright Met Office What we should be doing - future? It’s all about ‘me’ What is going to happen in my back yard? How will it impact on me? And when do I need to worry? Google gives us a common platform – a bridge between science and the public We need to be the service providers: Taylor the outputs to individual needs – we can Do it by being flexible – often a challenge in the face of uncertainty

© Crown copyright Met Office Distributed collaboration It doesn’t have to be all about us Capitalise on the vast amounts of information already available out there, e.g. critical coastal infrastructure, flood defences, population density, etc. Focus on the public service elements when thinking about ourselves as one of the collaborators Make our climate impacts outputs both freely available to the public and commercially available to customers, with different degrees of information attached to each service Above all – walk the bridge
