When it comes to dealing with climate change it is often hard to know where to begin. Our climate change services focus on helping communities, businesses, governments, and organizations cut through complexity to better understand the implications of climate change in their specific context.
For some, the first step is to grasp how the climate is changing and understand what that means for their home, their business, their community, and the environment around them. Others need to know where they are vulnerable, what part or parts of their organization, operation, or community are most at risk and, importantly, what options and resources are available to prepare, respond, and adapt.
Our Solutions
To help you plan for climate change and increase resilience to climate hazard risks we offer a range of services and solutions:
- Climate change and related climate hazard risk projections for your area based on the latest climate modeling data and presented in accessible, plain language formats
- Vulnerability assessments to help you understand where your community, organization, or operation are exposed to climate hazard risks and extreme weather events
- Quantitative assessments of the economic impacts of climate change impacts from single events to long-term or systemic change(s)
- Research, engagement, and analysis to help you discover the strengths, resources, and capabilities available to your organization or community to inform and action practical responses. We use surveys, structured engagement (focus groups/workshops) and other methods to connect with your constituents, citizens, and customers and uncover local knowledge and experience
- Nature-based solutions to support adaption to climate related hazards such as sea level rise, to protect property and restore ecological processes, and enhance mitigation and resilience through forest management and restoration.
