ClimateWise® Services
Helping communities plan and prepare for a changing climate:
ClimateWise® is a nonprofit scientific consulting firm specializing in helping communities:
To project the conditions we might expect in the future, climate scientiists have created models based on the physical, chemical, and biological processes that form the earth’s climate system. Our ClimateWise planning tools include localized maps and data sets based on these models, adjusted to local and regional scales.
In addition to rising sea levels and melting permafrost, climate scientists tell us we can expect more severe:
- droughts
- floods
ClimateWise® is an impartial planning process that can help your community:
- Understand the local impacts of a changing climate
- Reduce conflict by finding common ground
