SUMMARY:Climate Resilience Summit
DESCRIPTION:How do we prepare and respond to the impacts of climate change in the Pacific Northwest? \n \nKick the new year off by joining the conversation with community and business leaders at the 2018 Climate Resilience Summit on January 6. \nPrices go up on December 1 so get your tickets today!  \nScholarships are also available. \nThis conference hosted by Sustainable Seattle will focus on issues of equity and how we can best support communities on the front lines of climate disruption. \nThe conference will include an opening keynote from Washington State Senator Rebecca Saldaña and presenters on the following themes: \n\nHealth & Food Systems\nEducation\, Youth & Climate\nWater & Energy Use\nUrban Planning\nBusiness/Financial Systems\n\nReception to follow after the event. We hope to see you there! \n————–\n***YA ESTÁ DISPONIBLE LA INSCRIPCIÓN TEMPRANA CON DESCUENTO. LOS PRECIOS SUBEN EL 1 DE DECIEMBRE*** \nLa Cumbre de Adaptación Climática 2018 en Seattle\, WA\, identificará estrategias y catalizará acciones para que un movimiento inclusivo multisectorial fomente la adaptación climática en el Pacífico Noroeste. \nEste movimiento para desarrollar nuestra adaptación climática tiene poderosas implicaciones para el futuro de nuestra región – desde cómo manejar las crecientes amenazas de la alteración climática hasta la forma en la que nosotros\, como comunidad\, no solamente nos recuperamos sino que nos preparamos para salir adelante al enfrentar el cambio climático. Sustainable Seattle (Seattle Sostenible) se reunirá para una serie de conferencias bajo la pancarta de nuestro Reto a la Adaptación en el Pacífico Noroeste\, el próximo tres de enero – Cumbre de Adaptación Climática 2018. Les invitamos a unirse a nosotros para examinar los retos particulares\, así como las oportunidades de cómo prepararse y responder a los impactos del cambio climático. La adaptación climática se define a menudo como la habilidad que tienen las comunidades\, empresas\, instituciones y ecosistemas de recuperarse de eventos extremos y soportar los impactos a largo plazo del cambio climático. En contraste\, nosotros pensamos en adelantarnos a la adaptación climática para enfrentar las causas de raíz de la crisis climática y al mismo tiempo crear comunidades más equitativas\, justas y prósperas. Esta conferencia se enfoca en temas de equidad y la mejor forma de apoyar a nuestras comunidades en la vanguardia de la alteración climática. \nResumen de la Agenda de la Cumbre:\n8:00 a.m. Registro\, Café/Desayuno\n8:30 –9:00 a.m. Apertura de la Mañana Con Senator Rebecca Saldana\n9:00–12:30 p.m. Itinerarios de Sesiones – opciones de presentaciones y paneles:\nLos Sistemas de Salud y Alimentación • La Educación\, La Juventud y el Clima • El Agua y el Uso de Energía • La Planeación Urbana • Los Negocios/Sistemas Financieros\n12:30–2:00 p.m. Almuerzo con el Panel de Programas Modelo: Ciudad de Seattle\, Cooperativa de Ahorro y Crédito Verity\, Got Green\n2:30–5:00 p.m. Talleres de Negocios/Gobierno/ Comunidad: Bloques de Desarrollo para la Adaptación Climática\n5:00–7:00 p.m. Feria de Recepción e Información
