The longer we put off action, the more costly it will be to address this challenge. We need to work together in facing these challenges and guide where we focus our efforts and investment. Infrastructure Infrastructure, such as roading, drinking water, stormwater and wastewater, is central to our community wellbeing. We need to plan for and invest in it wisely. Maintaining existing and building new infrastructure must respond to urban growth trends as well as climate change and other hazards. THE EVIDENCE – WHAT DO WE ALREADY KNOW? Mean sea level rise Mean sea level rise projections for 100 years range between » 0.55m-1.35m Increased risk of inundation from tsunami and storm events as a » result of sea level rise.
