Join Tonya Graham, Executive Director, and Kim Adams, Organization and Strategy Analyst, from the Geos Institute for this month’s meeting. They will discuss Tonya’s soon to be finalized proposal, “Climate Ready America: How the U.S. can meet its climate goals by developing a nationwide system of climate resilience support services for local leaders.” This proposal is a big-picture, conceptual piece for mobilizing and supporting local and regional mitigation and adaptation efforts within a coordinated framework. It highlights what are considered to be highly Extension-compatible strategies like directly supporting community action, promoting best practices and regularly updating information and processes, and providing consistency and measuring outcomes.
