The British government has launched a competition worth a total of £400,000 ($620,180) inviting engineers, scientists, and designers to come up with ways to protect infrastructure from the effects of climate change. "Roads, railways, and our wi-fi networks are the building blocks of our economy, and we need them to stand up to what climate change can throw at it," Environment Minister John Derek Taylor said July 23 in a prepared statement.
