Testimonials

“The Climate Ready Communities program is off to a great start. I was one of the Beta reviewers for this program in March 2018, and was impressed by the breadth and detail of the information provided in the Practical Guide for Developing Climate Resilience. The Geos Institute’s 7-step framework for developing climate resilience provides a systems approach that a community can actually use and the Guide covers a range of useful topics from community engagement to developing a task force. The tutorials, templates and website will help a community like ours navigate the resilience building process.”
Dena Winslow, tribal planner and grant writer, Aroostook Band of MicMacs, Presque Isle, ME
“We were excited to participate in the beta review of the Climate Ready Communities program, given the great experience we had working with the Geos Institute on our initial climate resilience planning several years ago. We had a team from my non-profit organization, the city, and the county conduct the review, and we believe their comprehensive approach shows that they really understand what it is like to do this work in the real world. The templates and tutorials in their subscription service make their 7 Step climate resilience framework accessible for local government and partners. We plan to use the Climate Ready Communities framework and subscription service to help with a climate resilience plan for Missoula County. We’re excited about the public launch of this program – the more climate resilient communities the better!”
Amy Cilimburg, Executive Director, Climate Smart Missoula
“Climate Ready Communities has given the City of Warren the means and resources necessary to begin meaningful dialogues about climate change, mitigation, and adaptation in a way that leads to community-driven actions that can be implemented by way of local and county governments through actions organized by steering committees.”
City of Warren, MN
“The Climate Ready Communities Beta was an informative and inspiring process. It has provided clear direction for Corinth’s climate resiliency planning efforts using an easily understandable framework. The Climate Ready Communities guidebook will, without a doubt, enhance Corinth’s ability to prepare for an uncertain future by addressing those unique threats that may impact our community. We are grateful to the Geos Institute for providing us with an opportunity to participate in this process and we are optimistic about the prospect of receiving continued guidance from the Geos Institute’s respected experts.”
Patrick Hubbard, MPA, Development Coordinator, City of Corinth
“The Climate Ready Communities beta program was a great way for the City of Alameda to learn firsthand how the Geos Institute has structured its Practical Guide to Building Climate Resilience and the components of its companion subscription service for this Guide. We were impressed by the detailed, thoughtful and well-grounded approach in the Guide. We look forward to connecting with other subscribers and having access to the experts at the Geos Institute as we navigate the process of developing our city’s Climate Action and Resiliency Plan.”
Patrick Pelegri-O’Day, City of Alameda Climate Action Coordinator
