Join us for the Resilient Grey Climate Adaptation Conversation! Climate change is not a distant threat - it is here now. Warmer, wetter, and wilder weather is already affecting our infrastructure, economy, health, and natural environment. But together, we can make our community more resilient. Grey County is developing a community-wide climate change adaptation plan. This plan will identify how climate change is impacting our region, which infrastructure and services will be most impacted, and prioritize actions to mitigate impacts and increase community resilience. Climate change mitigation aims to slow climate impacts by reducing greenhouse gas pollution, like "playing offense". Climate adaptation aims to adjust how we do things, so the impacts will be less disruptive to our everyday lives, like "playing defense". We want to make sure this plan reflects your concerns. So, we need to hear from you! Share your greatest concerns and ideas by Friday, May 16, 2025 in one of the following three ways: Chat with us at a local community event ! Participate in a climate conversation or host your own using our handy conversation kit .
