Mitigation strategies reduce greenhouse gas emissions from development, and adaptation strategies make communities more resilient to the effects of a changing climate. Smart growth strategies also bring environmental benefits and provide economic advantages to local governments and the private sector. In addition, they can save people money on energy and transportation, which is particularly important for low-income residents, and help protect human health." -- from the website, 1/20/2017

Title: FACT SHEET: Taking Action to Protect Communities and Reduce the Cost of Future Flood Disasters | The White House

URL: http://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/eop/ceq/Press_Releases/January_30_2015

Description: "Across the country, extreme weather and other impacts of climate change are threatening the health, safety, and prosperity of our communities. This month, NOAA and NASA announced that 2014 was the hottest global year on record. And as the planet continues to warm, impacts like rising sea levels, intensified storms, and heavy downpours are contributing to an increased risk of flooding. President Obama is committed to ensuring that American communities thrive in the face of a changing climate. That is why, today, the President signed an Executive Order establishing a flood standard that will reduce the risk and cost of future flood disasters by requiring all Federal investments in and affecting floodplains to meet higher flood risk standards. By requiring that Federally funded buildings, roads and other infrastructure are constructed to better withstand the impacts of flooding, the President’s action will support the thousands of communities that have strengthened their local floodplain management codes and standards, and will help ensure Federal projects last as long as intended." -- from the website, 9/20/2015

Description: "Buffalo, like most cities, faces a wide range of challenges in protecting and restoring the quality of the air, water, land, flora and fauna on which healthy lives for residents depend. These challenges include reducing traffic congestion, improving air quality, conserving energy, responding to impacts of global warming, reclaiming polluted industrial lands, improving sanitary sewage handling, cleaning up toxic Buffalo River sediments, preserving wildlife habitat, and many others ... In the face of such a daunting agenda, the city is fortunate to have both strong political leadership and active citizens engaged in this work. Organized environmentalists have helped identify the city’s problems, inventory its assets and shape the environmental agenda. Political leaders have explicitly acknowledged the City’s obligation to lead the work for environmental improvement. " -- from the website, 5/22/2016
