Climate action can be costly, but it doesn't have to be. Coordinating climate efforts, either with partners or across departments, can create efficiencies that turn climate change from a massive funding challenge to a substantial opportunity.

From making farmers more resilient, to coordinating investments across three municipalities, here are the resilience connections we've been making.
