Sustainable Infrastructure: Climate Change Adaptation Strategies. 1 PDH

We often hear of the risks that our infrastructure faces from climate change, but what exactly are these risks and what can we do about them?  Infrastructure, including natural and man-made systems, is critical to human progress.  Federal facilities including DoD installations include many types of infrastructure, all of which are potentially at risk from climate change impacts.  Come to learn about the potential impacts of climate change on infrastructure, and the strategies to minimize those impacts.
