    Hi AIA HRC,

    Supporting combat readiness while maintaining the long-term sustainability of the Department of Defense's many historic properties is the focus of the recently released Department of Defense Climate Adaptation Guide for Cultural Resources. The Guide notes carbon emission reductions attributed to historic building reuse and explains how to reflect climate adaptation planning in cultural resource management plans.

    Please, find the new Guide here: Climate Adaptation Guide for Cultural Resources: A Guide to Incorporating Climate Considerations into Integrated Cultural Resource Management Plans (osd.mil).
