ENRE-SDC Joint Happy Hour
You are Invited!
Please register to join us on Friday, February 4th at Noon CT for a joint webinar with the Hazards Mitigation Division: Responding to Climate Change
There will be three presentations on the topics of green infrastructure, hazard mitigation planning, and wildfire hazard mitigation strategies
David Rouse will define green infrastructure and resilience and how these two concepts are interrelated. He will then describe a planning framework for using green infrastructure to build community resilience to climate change. This framework is organized around the five strategic points of intervention developed by the American Planning Association.
Darrin Punchard will present on the topic of advancing climate resilience through hazard mitigation planning.
Molly Mowery will present how climate change is playing a significant role in reshaping wildfire seasons and severity, as recently witnessed by the devastating Marshall Fire in Boulder County, Colorado that occurred in late December 2021.
