Green Natural Nature-Based Hybrid

Natural Infrastructure in the News

Post-Sandy Improving coastal resilience by pursuing a systems approach that incorporates natural, social, and built components

Administration Priority “Recognizing the many benefits the Nation's natural infrastructure provides, agencies shall, where possible, focus on program and policy adjustments that promote the dual goals of greater climate resilience and... other reductions to the sources of climate change.”

Priority Agenda on Enhancing the Climate Resilience of America’s Natural Resources Chapter 4: Enhancing community preparedness and resilience by utilizing and sustaining natural resources More than 30 individual actions identified across nine federal agencies and the Executive Office of the President

Coastal Green Infrastructure and Ecosystem Services Task Force Identify knowledge gaps that impede the integration of green infrastructure into coastal climate resilience planning and response Develop a federal research agenda

Recommendations offered guidance on how the federal government should Modernize programs and policies to incorporate climate change Incentivize and remove barriers to community resilience Provide useful actionable information and tools President’s State, Local, and Tribal Leaders Task Force

Directed research funding Funding for implementation Technical assistance and tools development Emphasis on metrics and indicators Federal Agency Action

On the Ground in Maryland

Partnerships to Support Understanding through Implementation

The other SAGE: A Systems Approach to Geomorphic Engineering Promoting a systems approach to coastal risk reduction that looks at the landscape scale and integrates natural and gray infrastructure solutions Key activities: -Developing metrics to understand performance of natural and nature based features -Creating communication tools -Exploring regional pilot opportunities

Opportunities for THIS Community Build new partnerships, share ideas, and leverage resources Respond Connect science to management decisions Generate interest and investment in increasing understanding of infrastructure choices for resilient communities, ecosystems, and economies …
