Adaptation Policy Guide
California Climate Adaptation Policy Guide – Public Review Phase
The California Natural Resources Agency, in partnership with the California Emergency Management Agency and with support from California Polytechnic State University – San Luis Obispo (Cal Poly), are developing an Adaptation Policy Guide (APG) to provide a decision‐making framework intended for use by local and regional stakeholders to aid in the interpretation of climate science and to develop a systematic rationale for reducing risks caused, or exacerbated, by climate change. The APG is not intended to provide a prescriptive set of strategies. Instead, it will provide a framework to guide decision makers through the critical considerations necessary for adaptation policy development.Public Review Draft:
Public comments on the Draft APG are being sought, and the document is now available for public review. To view the Draft APG, please choose the link below:Draft California Climate Adaptation Policy Guide
