Modeling Impacts on Climate Change in the Chesapeake Bay Region

Working in partnership with the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration, National Geographic and a host of other partners, The Conservation Leadership Network will be holding a workshop in the fourth quarter of 2009 on Climate Change and Green Infrastructure in the Chesapeake Region.

Green infrastructure is defined as a strategically planned and managed network of natural lands, working landscapes, and other open spaces that conserve ecosystem values and functions and provide associated benefits to human populations. Green infrastructure planning provides an excellent context in which to discuss climate change and its impacts on both the natural and built environment.

Participants in this workshop will explore how their network designs are impacted vis-à-vis various sea-level rises. A design team for this workshop will be formed in the New Year. Visit this page again for further details!
