Green, Blue, and Equitable: Highlighting and Scaling U.S. States’ Best Practices for Increasing Resilience

This event showcases state leadership on resilience, specifically how U.S. states are building resilience in day-to-day decisions, assets, and planning and investments to incorporate adaptation and resilience into the Paris Framework. Nature- and ecosystem-based solutions, green infrastructure, investments in community and regional capacity, and carbon-smart practices must be implemented now and prioritized in all planning and future actions as part of climate readiness and resilience—these solutions also provide a multitude of economic, environmental, and social co- benefits. For states to best utilize state, federal, and private investments, it is essential that resilience investments be guided by equity considerations. Recognizing that building resilience requires a systems approach that drives investment in adaptation across built, natural, and social communities- the panel focuses on how adaptation and other climate-smart land management practices can provide ecological and economic resilience for communities, increase food system resilience (a key social determinant of public health) and provide the essentials elements needed for a clean, equitable, and resilient future.
