No Budget, No Funding: Climate Adaptation Financing In New Jersey

Adapting to a changing climate could be one of the largest investments we’ll make over the next generation. Yet we have no strategies to generate reliable funding for it. Instead, we continue to pay for adaptation by waiting for catastrophe and hoping for federal assistance. This session will examine the forces compelling us to respond proactively to our changing climate, the current state of adaptation financing, and ways to create dedicated funding to protect communities’ critical systems, services and infrastructure.
