Climate Resilience Hubs Community Presentation

Climate Resilience Planning: Understanding Local Impacts
Albemarle County is already experiencing climate change—longer heat waves, more intense rain events, and seasonal disruption. To prepare for greater extremes in weather patterns, we will work with the community to develop a climate adaptation and resilience plan. The first step in producing this plan is to understand how weather events exacerbated by climate change—so-called climate hazards—will impact our community, environment, and infrastructure. The County’s Climate Vulnerability and Risk Assessment, published in June 2022, presents this information. Preparing for Resilience provides an overview of the key takeaways.
This is a video of a community event in which we discussed the main conclusions of this report and reviewed our next steps in building resilience as a community and local government. We began with an overview of the report’s key takeaways, which was followed by a panel discussion by local experts to help contextualize these themes within the daily lives of community members. We closed with an outline of the next steps in preparing for resilience, including our community engagement process to help develop a climate adaptation resilience plan.
