| | | CAF14-205 | | Climate Change Risks in the Supply Chain: The Weak Link? Speakers: Susanne Moser, Director and Principal Researcher, Susanne Moser Research & Consulting, Stanford University; Chris Erickson, President and CEO, Climate Earth Inc.; Robert Dickinson, President, Argos Analytics, LLC; MODERATOR: Emilie Mazzacurati, Founder and CEO, Four Twenty Seven Climate change is set to impact agricultural and human systems around the world, significantly disrupting global and local supply chains. This session identifies what tools and data are needed to prevent or lessen climate-related disruptions in the supply chain. We discuss examples of weather-related crises that exemplify the risks brought about by climate change in the supply chain, and think through what monitoring, communication and analysis tools might have helped them prevent or reduce the impacts, or shorten the duration of the crisis. The session features demos of innovative tools and applications to assess and monitor risks in the supply chain. | | MP3 | | $10.00 | | $10.00 | |

Creating Multi-Agency, Multi-Jurisdictional Capacity to Respond to Climate Change Speakers: Sandi Potter, Division Manager, Sonoma County Permit and Resource Management Department; Karen Gaffney, Program Manager, Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District; Geof Syphers, CEO, Sonoma Clean Power; Caitlin Cornwall, Biologist and Development Officer, Sonoma Ecology Center; Coordination Committee Member, North Bay Climate Adaptation Initiative; MODERATOR: Suzanne Smith, Executive Director, Regional Climate Protection Authority
This session shares lessons learned in building adaptation capacity across agencies, jurisdictions and non-governmental organizations in Sonoma County, including the creation of novel structures for regional governance. We connect participants with presenters and one another to problem-solve across common challenges of coordination, communication, lack of resources, access to data, and others in trying to build resiliency at a local level. A short presentation from Sonoma County panelists introduce four different perspectives on climate action and capacity building, including insights into what has and has not been successful. | | MP3 | | $10.00 | | $10.00 | |
