Climate Change?

Key Themes It is important to rigorously assess climate change vulnerabilities before jumping to action The built environment faces new and more intense hazards and a new, shifting “normal” climate Climate change risks are dynamic, many, and inter-connected; it’s important to be flexible There is existing resilience in our communities and ways to increase resilience
