    This is an interesting document, not only for what it addresses, but also as one template of how information is organized and presented.  I would like to hear your thougthts on this.

    I am very proud to be a small part of this, along with scores of volunteer colleagues, Kimberly Korioth RI Chief Sustainability Officer, the Executive Climate Change Coordinating Council, and the consultant team.  I was part of three groups that were involved in this, meeting two to four times a month, for over a year.

    Rhode Island Statewide Coastal Resilience Plan

    Rhode Island has developed "Resilient Rhody 2025," its Statewide Coastal Resilience Plan, in response to the increasing risks posed by sea-level rise, extreme weather, and other impacts of climate change to our communities. This plan will guide our adaptation and response to these growing challenges. As part of the development, community members, local organizations, and partners from across the state joined community forums and provided input that directly shaped the plan.
