SUMMARY:The ‘R’ Word: Retreat\, Relocation and Climate Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Climate adaptation efforts are often focused on armoring the built environment against climate risks. But given dire climate projections and the costs associated with retrofits and rebuilding\, retreat and relocation should be part of the conversation as well. Join the Climate Adaptation Forum for a discussion about retreat\, relocation\, and climate resilience. Speakers will touch on the financial\, legal and human hurdles to retreat. We will hear stories from around the country of communities and individuals that have successfully moved or are currently grappling with the need to relocate due to climate change and sea level rise. \nForum Co-Chairs\nNasser Brahim\, Technical Leader\nKleinfelder \nJason Hellendrung\, ASLA\, PLA\, Vice President\, Planning and Design\nTetra Tech \nDeanna Moran\, Director of Environmental Planning\nConservation Law Foundation \nSpeakers\nChallenges and Lessons Learned from U.S. Retreat \nA.

SUMMARY:Managed Retreat Workshop: Legal and Policy Tools for States and Local Communities
DESCRIPTION:Organized by the Georgetown Climate Center (GCC) and the Climate Adaptation Forum\, this workshop will offer participants the opportunity to engage in a facilitated discussion on managed retreat (i.e. relocating development from vulnerable coastal areas) and the legal and policy considerations impacting land-use decisions and human and natural resources movements in response to sea-level rise. \nParticipants will share their own work and learn from other experts across disciplines confronting questions about managed retreat as one strategy for adapting to rising seas and increased flooding. In addition\, participants will have an opportunity to inform ongoing work by the GCC to create an online Managed Retreat Toolkit which is being designed to support state and local government decisions about how to adapt to rising sea levels (forthcoming in Fall 2019).
