Comments: AT23-204 Webinar Adaptation Checklist for Climate Smart Natural Resource Management Project, Presenter: James Hansen (AT=1.5h)
Webinar Date: 6/27/2023
Webinar Time: 10:30a-12:00p
Webinar Summary:
A methodology for researchers that aids in evaluating projects and assessing the potential for climate change to impact project management actions and policies.
Webinar Description:
Climate change has implications for both the effectiveness and hazard risk potential of many projects and activities undertaken or reviewed by natural resource managers. Failing to evaluate the potential vulnerability of a project or action prior to implementation or approval can lead to missed opportunities to improve design, optimize siting or otherwise reduce risk.
The “Adaptation Checklist for Climate Smart Projects” is a tool that can be used by conservation practitioners across agencies and organizations to help determine how climate change might impact a given project, and what adaptation options may be most appropriate to apply. While this tool is most easily used in evaluating a place-based project, it can be used to assess the climate savviness of many types of natural resource management-related actions as well as policies.
Note: This is not just advanced training, it is very advanced training. Fortunately, no tests.
