The Crystal Coast Business community is aware of changes already taking place where we live AND work: temperatures are rising, storms are more intense, flooding happens more often and is more extensive, new roads are opening, and there’s a housing shortage, to name a few!
- What action is needed now?
- What what will it take to get the transformative solutions our coastal communities need?
- How we can build a community of resilient businesses protected against climate-related damage, disruptions, and closures?
Let’s leverage our situational savvy and our economic and environmental perspectives to help create innovative solutions for the challenges we face.
