Education efforts include partnering with local water organizations and authorities to provide information to the residents on actions they can take to improve water quality, reduce water usage through xeriscaping and best landscape practices, water efficiency, monitoring usage. In addition to Restore the Gore efforts, overall education on greenhouse gas emission reduction is critical. As the climate changes, the average snowfall also changes. Snowpack is the primary source of water in Gore Creek and below average snowfall lends itself to drought. Inspiring residents and visitors alike to reduce their carbon footprint by carpooling, taking public transportation, biking, walking or using other forms of human powered modes of transportation is important to Town of Vail and Eagle County. As an effort to encourage human powered commuting, Town of Vail sponsors Sole Power, a county wide green commuting challenge with a goal of reducing vehicle miles traveled by 50,000 each year.Finance secured300000300000Localhttps://lovevail.org/programs/gore-creek/54502018{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-106.374, 39.6403]}2020-05-01T04:07:31.380

The centre monitors the weather parameter and data, analyses weather pattern and works out short- and long-term mitigation efforts. The centre recognizes that climate change was the main reason for natural disasters to occur, where the rain pattern was not same anymore in downstream area. In particular, they have concluded that global warming also causes the sea level to rise. Human behaviour is also one of the contributing factors. There is too much waste in the drainage system and it is expensive to clean up and maintain. Proper development should be carried out and maintained to prevent rivers from becoming shallow. The relevant authorities realize that Selangor needs to upgrade and build more retention ponds and flood control pumping stations to prevent flooding in the state. Along with that, the city drainage system needs to be upgraded to compliment the drainage facility by the Drainage and Irrigation Department. All these efforts require financial funding unfortunately which will take time to secure.Feasibility finalized, and finance partially securedLocalhttps://www.nst.com.my/news/nation/2017/11/301296/selangor-needs-build-more-retention-ponds-and-flood-control-pumping66989420182020-05-01T04:07:31.380

Local ecological networks, with their set of hedges, woods, ditches, meadows, canals and water basins are indispensable elements for the ecological re-balancing of the territory, from multiple points of view, including mitigation and climatic compensation. In order to give impetus and concreteness to the project, as well as in view of the revision of the Ecological Network for the forthcoming new Masterplan PUG (2021), the action provides the permanent monitoring of biodiversity, with the use of indicators on the state of conservation, also preparatory to the contrast to invasive exotic animal and plant species throughout the public territory with sharing of regional, national and European alert systems.Pre-feasibility study status500001320092017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[11.619, 44.8357]}2020-05-01T04:07:31.380

The goal of the City of Manhattan Beach’s Coastal Resiliency and Climate Change Adaptation Project is to complete best-practice SLR and climate change analyses and planning, thereby providing a strong scientific basis to inform and enhance the preparation and implementation of the City’s Climate Action and Adaptation Plan and update to the LCP-Land Use Plan (LCP-LUP), General Plan, and Hazard Mitigation Plan. This analysis and update to the LCP-LUP will include a SLR vulnerability and risk analysis taking into consideration coastal storms and SLR overland flooding. The City will use the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Coastal Storm Modeling System 3.0 (CoSMoS), and analyze the impacts from SLR to the local groundwater table, and the confluence of precipitation and storm events’ impact on stormwater infrastructure.Finance secured425000200000(Sub)national$225,000 State Grant: California Coastal Commission LCP Grant - Funding is provided by the California Climate Investments program, a statewide initiative funded by appropriations from the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund https://documents.coastal.ca.gov/reports/2018/11/W7e/w7e-11-2018-report.pdfandhttps://documents.coastal.ca.gov/assets/lcp/grants/round-5/ManhattanBeach.pdf351352010{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-118.405, 33.8889]}2020-05-01T04:07:31.380

To this it must be added that the contribution of tourism to greenhouse gas emissions is increasing "and it is expected that they will increase of 130% between 2005 and 2035 ", thus reaching 10% of total global emissions by 2025, against today's 3.96% ("Climate Change: Implications for Tourism" report, published by Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership et al.).For this reason, the Municipality of Ferrara has already set up a series of strategies for de-season tourist presences and promote integrated itineraries together with other entities / realities of the territory, such as the coastal towns. Due to this reason, from 2017 Ferrara joins the Destinazione Turistica Romagna established by the Emilia Romagna Region and has developed visual identity of the project "Ferrara Feeling" together with Comacchio, designing some thematic sub-projects of tourist communication (sports, cultural itineraries etc.).It is therefore planned to continue and implement these actions by specifically promoting the following activities: promotion of sustainable tourism through marketing and social tools and the active involvement of tour operators in the area; promotion of a tourism offer extended over the whole year and able to reach different targets, such as for example congress tourism, young / old, also through the promotion of specific events already scheduled in periods of lower tourist flows and that can be implemented through twinning with events developed in other cities during high season or aimed at these specific targets.Pre-feasibility study status(Sub)nationalhttps://destinazioneromagna.emr.it/1320092017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[11.619, 44.8357]}2020-05-01T04:07:31.380

Green infrastructure involves greening elements that support a city such as street trees, green walls and roofs, community gardens and Water Sensitive Urban Design. Green spaces in cities provide cooling through shading and enhanced evapotranspiration, reducing the heat island effect in cities. Urban green areas can also have positive effects for human health; flood prevention and climate change adaptation. The Green Infrastructure Guidelines highlight public spaces and greening approaches which include Living Architecture and Water Sensitive Urban Design working together to create a more sustainable city. The guidelines also highlight a best practice approach to greening the City of Adelaide which include: • Prioritising greening in the city through trees, street plantings, green roofs and walls, within Council's existing projects and asset renewal programs • Identifying opportunities to add greening to Council owned buildings as a series of demonstration projects, including funding and staging requirements • Foster and incentivising developers, business and community uptake of greening initiatives • Pilot the greening of a representative residential pocket of the city, with a view to learning lessons that can be applied more broadly across the city. For more information about greening in the City of Adelaide visit adelaidedesignmanual.com.au/design-toolkit/greening. In FY2017/18 CoA ran a Green City Grant Program which encourages residents, businesses and property owners to create a pocket of greenery that adds to their street appeal and helps make the city’s streets and public spaces more attractive and enjoyable. Funding is available to cover up to half of the cost of each greening project. Grants start at $500 for residents and $1,000 for business and building owners, up to a maximum grant of $10,000 in matched funding.239162017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[138.601, -34.9285]}2020-05-01T04:07:06.200
