However, there is no single action or strategy that any government can implement to ensure a community is resilient to climate change-related extreme weather events while also protecting the natural system. Instead, Robert Brears argues, climate resilient water resources management requires integrated, forward-thinking policies that are not only adaptable to changing climatic conditions but also seek to maximise economic and social welfare in an equitable manner while ensuring the continued health of their ecosystems. This book addresses how several levels of government in different geographical locations, with varying climates, incomes, and lifestyles, have implemented a variety of policies and technologies to ensure communities are resilient to climatic risks, and how these policies preserve and enhance the natural system and its associated ecosystem’s health.Palgrave Studies in Climate Resilient Societies,2523-8124EnvironmentClimate changeEnvironmental managementHuman geographyEnvironment Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X36000Climate Change/Climate Change Impactshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000Water Policy/Water Governance/Water Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/215000Climate Change Management and Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/314000Climate Changehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U12007Human Geographyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X26000Environment.Climate change.Environmental management.Human geography.Environment Studies.Climate Change/Climate Change Impacts.Water Policy/Water Governance/Water Management.Climate Change Management and Policy.Climate Change.Human Geography.333.91Brears Robert Cedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910300583503321Climate Resilient Water Resources Management1984758UNINA
