The Office of Sustainability (OOS) is inviting Philadelphia residents to share their experiences with climate issues and to be a part of informing the new Climate Resilience Plan. Your insights are key to helping the City understand and address climate challenges in different neighborhoods. Take the Citywide Climate Resilience survey – now available in 8 languages – to help guide how we prepare for and respond to climate change.
Why take the survey?
The survey is a critical step in the City’s process for creating a more equitable, informed, and community-centered Climate Resilience Plan. The plan aims to guide future policies and programs that will protect our infrastructure, people, health, livelihoods, and the places we call home from worsening climate impacts. These impacts include heat waves, flooding, and extreme storms.
Your input will directly inform and guide future City policies and research related to building a stronger, more resilient Philadelphia. Take the survey to:
- Share your knowledge of local climate and environmental justice issues.
- Share your community values and priorities.
- Give feedback on how effective local government is at addressing climate challenges.
- Keep City government informed about urgent needs and long-term priorities for action, especially in communities most affected by climate and environmental injustices.
- Stay updated on engagement events and more ways to get involved in the Climate Resilience Plan update.
How to share your input
OOS has launched the Citywide Climate Resilience survey to gather input from residents across Philadelphia about their experiences with climate impacts, including heat waves, flooding, and extreme storms. The survey takes 10-20 minutes to complete and is available in 8 languages to ensure accessibility for a variety of participants. Take the survey in your preferred language:
