The Rockies Institute
There is an overwhelming amount of evidence that warming of Earth’s climate system is unequivocal. Even if humanity manages to avert the worst possible scenario, we are still facing unprecedented warming and costly natural disasters. This is reason enough to manage the risks, build our resilience and increase our knowledge about how to adapt.
Fast-tracking our knowledge about adaptation and resilience building is essential. We are teetering on environmental and social tipping points that could have unintended consequences, the more prepared we are – the better chance we’ll have at being able to adapt to change.
The Rockies Institute brings knowledge and good practices from multiple perspectives to inspire creative and innovative responses to this daunting challenge.
