Climate Adaptation Plan
In January 2022, the City of St. Albert participated in the Climate Adaptation Challenge. This program was developed to help municipalities across Alberta build resilience against the expected local effects of climate change. In collaboration with our partners from the Municipal Climate Change Action Centre and All One Sky Foundation, City staff and members from the Environmental Advisory Committee participated in a Climate Change Vulnerability and Risk Assessment. This assessment identified six priority climate risks and two priority opportunities, actions to address these risks and opportunities are highlighted in this plan.
City of St. Albert Climate Adaptation Plan
Climate adaptation has been identified as a priority through the development of St. Albert’s Municipal Development Plan. The Climate Adaptation Plan will be a proactive guide to incorporate actions into policies to reduce the City’s exposure to climate risks, lower social costs and improve economic viability of St. Albert over the long term.
Regional Climate Adaptation Study
The Edmonton Metropolitan Region Board (EMRB) Regional Climate Adaptation Study provides a regional understanding of how climate change is expected to affect communities across the Edmonton Metropolitan Region. It was developed to help municipalities in the Capital Region to identify shared climate risks and coordinate adaptation actions, supporting longterm resilience planning. This document, developed by the Edmonton Metropolitan Regional Board, serves as a foundation for evidence based decision making, ensuring the region is better prepared for future climate impacts and can continue to protect the wellbeing, infrastructure and natural systems that residents rely upon.
