  • Lacombe County Climate Resilience Action Plan
    LACOMBE COUNTY CLIMATE RESILIENCE EXPRESS ACTION PLAN MARCH 2018 Lacombe County – Climate Resilience Express Action Plan “A resilient community is one that has developed capacities to help absorb future shocks and stresses to its social, economic, and technical systems and infrastructures so as to still be able to maintain essentially the same functions, structures, systems, and identity.” [Working Definition, ResilientCity.org] This Climate Resilience Action Plan (Action Plan) has been produced through the Climate Resilience Express project with financial support from the Municipal Climate Change Action Centre, the Calgary Foundation, Natural Resources Canada, All One Sky Foundation, and Alberta Ecotrust. A key objective of the Climate Resilience Express project is to partner with communities across Alberta to complete a streamlined (“express”) process aimed at developing a community- specific climate resilience action plan through a one-day workshop, and to develop and maintain an ‘Action Kit’ to support other communities in working through the process. In 2016, six communities from across Alberta were selected to pilot the workshop process and aspects of the toolkit. In 2017, an additional seven communities participated in the project, including Lacombe Countyi. For more information on the Climate Resilience Express visit: allonesky.ca/climate-resilience- express-project/ or mccac.ca/programs/climate-resilience-express. Lacombe County – Climate Resilience Express Action Plan Summary The effects of climate change are already apparent in Lacombe County, with observable changes in temperature, precipitation, and extreme weather events over the last century. The impacts of climate change on the County could be numerous and diverse, giving rise to uncertain consequences, for infrastructure and services, property, the local economy and environment, and the health and lifestyles of citizens.
