Meet the Challenges of a Changing Climate
Learn about potential climate hazards so you can protect vulnerable assets.
Steps To Resilience
These steps help you document climate hazards that could harm the things you care about, decide which situations you most want to avoid, and come up with workable solutions to reduce your climate-related risks. Preparing a city to withstand weather and climate-related hazards can be addressed by applying these steps to regular updates of municipal plans. Watch the overview video or click any step to learn more.
