The Charles River Watershed Association had made a series of virtual events available on line, and one we think may be of interest is the Charles River Climate Compact talk, which happened June 25.
Many communities across the Charles River watershed are taking proactive steps to adapt to climate change. Even though many cities and towns are allocating resources to climate adaptation, the reality is there are challenges that individual towns cannot address on their own and are more appropriately addressed at a regional scale. Additionally, communities cannot act in a vacuum as the actions of one community will have impacts on neighboring or downstream communities.
In 2019, Charles River Watershed Association (CRWA) launched the Charles River Climate Compact (CRCC). The mission of the CRCC is to bring together communities in the Charles River watershed to work collaboratively on climate adaptation by sharing information and experiences and taking a watershed view of adaptation strategies. Currently, 22 of 35 communities are participating in this regional collaboration.
