New York City faces many threats from climate change, not least among them the threat of coastal storms and sea-level rise. Events like Hurricane Sandy are not soon forgotten, and the city must grapple with how to provide future protection for residents and infrastructure along its 520 miles of coastline, while balancing other impacts and interests. This Sustainability Series event will discuss the science and options for coastal flood risk management, with a particular focus on the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ recently released tentative plan for coastal intervention in New York and New Jersey. The Army Corps is welcoming comments on this study and plan from the public until March 7th, 2023.
