Monday, October 26 | 5:30–7:30 PM

Arverne East Nature Preserve, 190 Beach 44th Street, Arverne, NY


How can we better prepare our waterfront communities for flooding? Join us to share local experiences, explore flood mitigation strategies, and help shape a new tool designed to support residents and planners in evaluating flood risks.


Participants will have the opportunity to:


• Identify local flooding challenges and their impacts

• Share resilience and preparedness strategies

• Explore flood mitigation options for households, communities, and infrastructure

• Provide feedback on the developing CHORUS tool and help identify neighborhoods for future testing


Your input can help build a more resilient future for waterfront communities!

Keeping Climate Adaptation Moving Through Change | Oct 22, 2026 10:00 AM Eastern Time (US and Canada) | Virtual 


Climate adaptation is a long-term effort that must navigate changing priorities, leadership transitions, staff turnover, elections, and competing demands. Sustaining progress requires more than individual champions; it requires structures and practices that make adaptation part of how an organization works. This session will explore practical approaches for making adaptation more durable, including establishing clear ownership and accountability, embedding climate considerations into everyday decision-making, strengthening collaboration across departments and organizations, and keeping adaptation visible through internal communication.


Speakers: 


- Deborah Harford, Director, Strategy & Operations, Climate Innovation, SFU

- Curniss McGoldrick, Communications Director, ICLEI Canada

- Olivia Groff, Climate Change Adaptation Coordinator, City of St. Catherines


By the end of this session, participants will be able to: 


- Recognize how organizational structure and practices can help sustain climate adaptation through organizational change. 

- Identify practical approaches for embedding adaptation into governance, cross-department collaboration, and internal communication. 

- Use these approaches to strengthen adaptation within their own organization.


Climate Wins Within Reach: What Can Mayor Mamdani Do for NYC Now? | October 26th 12PM EDT | Virtual 


NYC Chief Climate Officer Louise Yeung joins us for a candid conversation about how NYC can address affordability and climate impacts, with a deeper dive on flooding.


​Topic: What should Mayor Mamdani know about affordability & climate’s intersection? What are the quick wins?


Throughout the series (highlights here), we have heard from community leaders, homeowners, small business owners, researchers, and advocates on how climate impacts them, particularly flooding.  How it drives up costs for households, small businesses, and property owners. In our final session, we recap solutions we’ve heard throughout the series and identify those still needed but within our grasp. 


​Featuring:


+ Louise Yeung, NYC Chief Climate Officer


​+ Amy Chester, Rebuild By Design


​+ Tyler Taba, Waterfront Alliance


​+ Nick Nyhan, The City Sponge / FloodLine


The “Affordability and Climate in NYC” webinar series is hosted by Rebuild By Design, Waterfront Alliance, and The City Sponge, with support from Con Edison



Urban and Rural Indigenous Perspectives on Building to Net-Zero

Thursday, October 29 | 2:00 to 3:00 pm ET | Virtual 


What does net-zero building look like when grounded in local knowledge, relationships to land, and community leadership? When it comes to net-zero projects and examples, Indigenous communities are often leading the way, bringing knowledge and priorities that can reshape how we think about energy, buildings, and community. This session explores Indigenous projects in urban and rural contexts to learn from their approaches to sustainable building, emissions reduction, and community building.


Through examples of community-led housing and energy projects in Vancouver and Haida Gwaii, the session will highlight the connections between Indigenous land stewardship and expertise. We will also discuss widespread challenges like housing, affordability, and climate, and explore how needs and opportunities differ between urban and remote settings.



Moving from Plan to Data-driven Roadmap with Clearpath 2.0 | 


November 4th 10:00 a.m. PT / 1:00 p.m. ET | Virtual 


Many local governments have a Climate Action Plan. Far fewer can answer a critical question: Are we on track to meet our goals?


With 2030 approaching, communities need to connect broad commitments to measurable emissions reductions. Join ICLEI USA and the Town of Crested Butte, Colorado, for a case study on using ClearPath 2.0 to make that connection.


We’ll walk through how Crested Butte translated its Climate Action Plan into a data-driven roadmap using ClearPath 2.0, ICLEI USA’s emissions inventory and modeling platform. Learn how the Town converted general strategies into quantifiable actions and trackable milestones to assess progress toward its climate targets.


What You’ll Learn

How to review your Climate Action Plan and identify strategies that need clearer measures of progress.

How to map broad strategies to specific Transition Elements in ClearPath 2.0.

How to use modeling tools to evaluate emissions reductions and build a credible path toward near- and long-term targets.


Make the Business Case for Adaptation | Nov 5, 2026 10:00 AM Eastern Time (US and Canada)


Climate impacts are already creating costs for municipalities, but those costs are often spread across departments, budgets, and services—and can be difficult to see. Making those costs visible can help demonstrate the value of investing in adaptation. This session will explore practical approaches, including climate expense tagging and Cost of Doing Nothing reporting, and how climate cost information can be used to build a stronger case for adaptation investment with finance, leadership, and other decision-makers.


Speakers: 


- Adrián Tóth, Manager, Climate Finance Program, ICLEI Canada

- Megan Myles, Interim Climate Change Manager, County of Grey


By the end of this session, participants will be able to:


- Recognize how making the financial impacts of climate change visible can strengthen the case for adaptation investment.

- Identify practical approaches, including climate expense tagging and Cost of Doing Nothing reporting, that can help build the evidence base for adaptation investment.

- Use climate cost information to communicate the value of adaptation and strengthen investment discussions with finance, leadership, and other decision-makers



Climate Corps & Local Governments | November 5th 2PM Eastern Time | Virtual 



Local governments have ambitious climate goals, and staff capacity can make all the difference in moving that work forward.


Join ICLEI USA and EDF Climate Corps to learn how a graduate fellow can support your team’s climate and sustainability projects, engage communities, and identify cost savings without requiring extensive supervision.


Hear from Phillip Duran, Senior Climate Analyst with the City of Austin, and Amber Mose, Energy Program Manager with Milwaukee County, about their experiences hosting Climate Corps fellows and what a fellow could help your team accomplish.



2026 Small Business Anti-Displacement Network Summit on Preventing Climate Displacement | November 12 - 13 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET | Virtual


Climate displacement is increasingly affecting vulnerable communities and small businesses across the U.S. and globally. Climate disasters, the long-term effects of climate change, and climate adaptation or mitigation strategies can also kickstart or compound gentrification. BIPOC- and immigrant-owned small businesses in low-wealth neighborhoods are particularly vulnerable to climate disasters and displacement.


Small businesses have struggled to recover in the wake of recent fires, floods, and other disasters, due in part to barriers to accessing aid, insufficient insurance, and inadequate resilience preparations. While many cities and communities are investing in climate resilience and disaster planning, the needs of small businesses are often peripheral to—or missing entirely—from these plans.


 Co-hosted by the Gentrification & Urban Displacement Lab at the Boston University Initiative on Cities
