Climate Change Integration into Urban Forestry and Stormwater Plans
In this meeting, a team of University of Toronto students who have worked with CAP in the last few months will summarise their research on the main practices of climate integration in Urban Forestry and Stormwater Plans. In the second half of the meeting, we would like to hear from practitioners on the efforts of climate integration. We will have an open discussion, with some Menti questions to lead the conversation. Please forward this to municipal staff working on urban Forestry and Stormwater plans.
District Energy Webinar Series: District Energy Ownership Models
This webinar is part of a CAC series on District Energy Systems. Reshape Strategies and representatives from the City of Edmonton and Richmond will share approaches to developing and implementing a Municipal DE Strategy. The webinar will cover approaches to identifying district energy priority zones, DE ownership and governance models, interactions between Green Building Standards and DE Strategies, and Case Studies from Edmonton, AB and Richmond, BC.
Adaptation Webinar Series: Overview of Provincial Reports on Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation
This webinar series continues the Climate Governance, Accountability, and Implementation Series with a focus on adaptation efforts. We will explore some available resources, showcase implemented adaptation projects, and learn from the experience of municipal staff working on adaptation initiatives.
In this first meeting, we will confirm research questions to support the series’ agenda. Al Douglas, from the Climate Risk Institute, will provide an overview of theĀ Five Provincial Reports on Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation. The reports aim to support municipalities conducting replicable and scalable risk assessments and provide adaptation best practices.
