Climate Resilience

Protecting communities and infrastructure against the impacts of climate must be done simultaneously with mitigating climate pollution. In the face of more frequent and devastating wildfires, severe storms, flooding, sea-level rise, and other climate impacts, communities face disparate risks and levels of support. Building and equipping communities with the necessary resilience tools at the federal, state, local, and tribal levels is a priority at the Center for American Progress. The following research and analyses sheds light on the actions being taken, and the action that needs to be taken, to empower and protect communities moving forward.
