Outcome:<br />

The Climate Change Adaptation Strategy is established<br />

Climate change poses a risk in sustaining communities into the future. We need to ensure we have<br />

considered the likely changes that will take place in our region and have developed a plan to adapt to<br />

those changes. We will need to work closely with both the Federal and State Governments to achieve<br />

this and to implement the plan.<br />
