SUMMARY:Crisis as Catalyst: Meeting the Moment with Transformational Investments
DESCRIPTION:In the wake of a crisis\, be it an extreme weather event\, a pandemic\, or something else\, political dynamics shift that catalyze innovation and usher in possibilities previously deemed unimaginable. Join the Climate Adaptation Forum on November 30th to learn about these critical junctures in history when opportunities to do the impossible became reality. \nWe’ll explore these moments to glean lessons that will help us prepare for our current climate crisis. What conditions allowed these changes to take place? Did planning happen beforehand? What pitfalls should we watch out for? During this discussion\, we’ll have the opportunity to learn from speakers exploring big infrastructure investments\, safety innovations\, and re-designing the urban landscape. \nForum Speakers\nHurricane Maria \nC.
