Local governments are the "first responders" to
social, environmental and economic disruptions resulting from natural disasters
and must anticipate, prepare for and adapt to the impacts of climate change
while minimizing greenhouse gas emissions. The Center for Clean Air Policy's
Urban Leaders Initiative has documented U.S. cities' preparations for climate
change, including New York, Miami, Chicago and Seattle. CCAP's California
Director, Ann Chan, will talk about
best practices and the national dialogue on climate adaptation.
