The Office of Climate Change (OCC) works across Government to support analytical work on climate change and the development of climate change policy and strategy.

Many government departments are involved in tackling climate change, or in helping the UK and other countries adapt to its possible future impacts.

The OCC is a shared resource for all Government departments.

The OCC's role is to: Run policy focused projects on difficult cross-cutting issues; Programme manage (at a high level) the UK's climate change commitments; Consolidate analysis and co- ordinate between departments, and Act as an advocate for climate change issues within government.

The OCC now has a website: http://www.occ.gov.uk
