Usage Guidance
-
This metric is intended to provide detailed information on the climate resilience strategy in place but does not provide an evaluation of the success with which the strategy is implemented.
-
A Climate Resilience Strategy contains procedures that react to an acknowledgment that climate change may affect the organization's operations, as compared to procedures that describe the organization's effects on climate change (e.g., Greenhouse Gas Emissions Strategy (OI8237)). The strategy may include natural hazard risk management procedures to deal with the implications from hazards such as fire, wind, water, pest and disease, etc., as well as adaptation strategies to deal with the impacts of climate change.
