Clark County to host interactive community workshop on climate resilience

Members of the Clark County community are invited to participate in a Clark County Climate Project Community Workshop on Resilience. This event is part of a series of activities throughout the year that will inform the county’s new climate chapter for its comprehensive plan.

With the passage of HB 1181 during the 2023 Washington state legislative session, Clark County is now required to add a climate change element into its Comprehensive Plan. The new climate chapter will include actions the county can take over the next 20 years to improve community resilience, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and benefit overburdened communities that will be disproportionately affected by the compounding environmental impacts and natural hazards due to climate change.
