Climate SMART Presentation

(Wednesday, September 15, 2010) - HRM’s Sustainable Environment Management Office (SEMO) will be presenting the Climate SMART Community Action Guide to Climate Change and Emergency Preparedness in Eastern Passage on September 16th, 2010 (6:30-8:00pm) at the Tallahassee Recreation Centre.

HRM recognizes that effective action to address climate change and its impacts can only be achieved through a consolidated effort by all stakeholders, including public and private sectors, and community groups. This Community Action Guide has been prepared as one of the tools to assist the HRM community to do its part to minimize climate change and to adapt to its consequences. This presentation will inform residents about climate change and potential impacts in HRM, and engage the residents in the implementation of the Community Action Guide.
