What does climate change mean for the people who live in a small town in the Mississippi River Delta region? It might mean an inoperable water supply system after a major storm, a neighborhood that is dangerously hotter than another, a home insurance policy that is suddenly unaffordable, or a flood protection system that can't keep up with overwhelming rainfall rates.  

 

This Climate Conversation will explore what happens when climate science gets close to home—and when communities have the information they need to understand and prepare for the risks they face.  Join Max Holmes and the Woodwell Climate Risk Team to learn more about their work with Eudora and Wilmot, Arkansas, two small communities in the Mississippi River Delta working to better understand their climate future.


Delivering high-quality climate modeling and technical analysis allows Woodwell to help communities transform their climate response, investing resources informed by climate models.  By translating complex climate data into practical options for action, we empower these communities to shift toward proactive planning.

 

At its heart, this is a conversation about making climate change tangible, making climate science useful, and ensuring access to that science isn't limited to communities that can afford it. Because climate change may be global, but we experience it one community, one neighborhood, and one decision at a time.
