The Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Policy (ACCAP) will host a
webinar titled "Climate Change Adaptation for an At Risk Community -
Shaktoolik Alaska" on Tuesday, 9 September 2014 from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m.
AKDT. The webinar presenter is Terry Johnson of the Alaska Sea Grant
Marine Advisory Program.
The Norton Sound village of Shaktoolik faces serious threats of erosion
and flooding resulting from climate change. University of Alaska Sea
Grant agent Terry Johnson and consultant Glenn Gray worked with the
community over a two-year period to develop an adaptation plan. The
community-driven plan positions Shaktoolik to work with Alaska's
Division of Community and Rural Affairs to begin implementation with
funding through the Alaska Climate Change Impact Mitigation Program.
Johnson explains how the plan was developed and how reality differs from
theory in climate adaptation planning.
