With climate change experts around the world, I help clients to co-create adaptation strategies by asking “how might we?” Three powerful words.

For those interested in the intersection of #extremeheat and #publichealth , the next NIHHIS Annual Meeting is just around the corner. This is such an important effort, particularly as we seek to understand intersectional issues. R…https://t.co/ja0Au81Hb7 https://t.co/gIFHFE1Mqf

It’s hard to imagine and so somewhat easier to ignore, but the data tell us that we’re not seeing, and therefore not thinking, clearly. Why put billions in projects intended to serve 50-100 years w/o considering optionality to address extremes? #PlanAhead https://t.co/MIjBX88rSP

For superbowl weekend, how’s this score? 1:10. Players? Buyouts versus new homes. Stadium? FLOODPLAIN. https://t.co/L6uaL8Ggep

Thanks to Anna Weber at Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) for this excellent review of the inherent challenges of growing adaptation without addressing capacities. How might we build more purposeful approaches to intercede in inequitable systems? https://t.co/cIL4sDDe4k

The work on #ResilienceHubs continues to grow and adapt. Is there a Community of
Practice connecting cities to share knowledge and rapidly learn together? Aubrey Germ, AICP, CFM has some excellent lessons from Baltimore and Marc Coudert is building in Aus…https://t.co/5SBrWPRkT6

Yearly these numbers astound, particularly with broader compounding & cascading consequences. Adaptation requires SEEing Differently, with Social, Economic, & Environmental impacts considered contextually with equity. #WeCantUnknowThis #CantWait https://t.co/vsJ6RIifdH

The Heat and Social Inequity in the United States tool examines one of the most significant public health risks posed by climate change: heat vulnerability, via a series of maps.

🚨 @EPA is today announcing it's proposed revision to the PM2.5 (soot) air pollution limits - while a step forward, it doesn't go far enough in protecting public health across the US.

Wow! Multigenerational collaboration is central for adaptation planning and so how might we do more like this to make technical discussions more accessible and engaging? https://t.co/Vm6ETXh2rG

[Janice Barnes @Janice_Barnes]

New-er thinking to start the new year: Transformational changes like these are central for national climate adaptation. https://t.co/Bc4cuigOOx

@amygrant @theryman Please wish Dot Barnes a big happy 78th birthday from your show tonight at the Ryman! She’s been waiting all year for the show.

[Janice Barnes @Janice_Barnes]

@theryman Please give a shout out this evening to Dot Barnes who is attending the Vince and Amy show on her 78th birthday! #AppalachiaProud

[Janice Barnes @Janice_Barnes]

Amazing gumption, a word we need to use more often when it comes to addressing One Health. Maybe we start by combining COPs and finding our own ways of destabilizing market systems that thrive on monotonies. Way to go Crouch Family! https://t.co/oZSM3KWqxp

[Rob Moore @RobMooreNRDC]

Amazing multi-media piece from @washingtonpost. The flood maps we rely on to guide development decisions can vastly underestimate where it will actually flood. @FEMA needs to start accounting for climate impacts in these maps. #FloodFEMA

A second major theme that has emerged from my study of disasters: place matters, much more than is reflected in the literature. A second 🧵

Managed Retreat in the Gulf Coast is the focus of an ongoing consensus study we're doing with NASEM. On 12/13, the Academies will host a panel on regional approaches to property acquisition as part of this effort. Please join us. https://t.co/vwjmF8TSpM

Interesting to read about Woody Encroachment, the reported dire threat to cattle and sheep ranches and a growing impact on the forage areas necessary to fuel more meat production. “Trees aren’t supposed to be here.” Perspective is everything. https://t.co/5aBO8OY0YB

@sidersadapts Hey Siders - our team is migrating to https://t.co/smTcNV5rV3 given @LaddKeith rec’d it. Waiting for our confirmations from @joinmastodon.
