EP1.4Collaborate with the Outreach Circle (service organizations and nonprofit groups that connect and coordinate the needs of those most vulnerable) on climate emergency response initiatives.

Populations that are most vulnerable have limited access to resources that can protect them from the increased frequency and severity of climate change. This includes access to homes with good air quality as well as safe infrastructure to prevent fires and floods.

The Climate Action & Environmental Stewardship Team has started connecting with service organizations and nonprofit groups throughout Kelowna to provide education and services on climate emergency response planning such as resources to improve indoor air quality and responding safely to extreme heat and wildfires.
