New Mapping Tool Helps Parks Plan for Climate Change

Flash floods struck Marionville City Park in southwest Missouri last week, with seven inches of rain falling in just six hours to leave the green space “destroyed,” according to local media reports. In an attempt to fill that void, the NRPA and design firm Sasaki partnered to develop Climate.Park.Change, an interactive platform that launched last month to allow park professionals to explore the impacts of climate change by region – such as drought, heatwaves and erosion—and to discover proven, effective strategies to fight them.
