Title: Climate Planner
Description: "The Climate Planner is about overcoming the objections to climate change mitigation and adaption that planners face at a local level. It shows how to draft climate plans that encounter less resistance because they involve the public, stakeholders, and decisionmakers in a way that builds trust, educates, creates consensus, and leads to implementation. Although focused at the local level, this book discusses climate basics like Carbon Dioxide levels in the atmosphere, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the Paris Agreement of 2015, worldwide energy generation forecasts, and other items of global concern in order to familiarize urban planners and citizen planners with key concepts they'll need to know in order to host climate conversations on the local level. The case studies from around the United States show how communities encountered pushback and bridged the implementation gap, the gap between plan and reality thanks to a commitment to substantive public engagement. The book is written for urban planners, local activists, journalists, elected or appointed representatives, and the average citizen worried about climate breakdown and working to reshape the built environment"--
