Lessons from Sandy: How Good Urban Design Can Help Us Weather the Weather
Join CNU's John Norquist for a special Fireside Chat podcast, February 25th @ 3:00pm EST, about the impact of Superstorm Sandy, and how cities are adapting to climate change.
Larry Gould, Senior Director at MTA NYC Transit and CEO of CNU-New York, and Gary Lawrence, Chief Sustainability Officer at AECOM, will discuss how major weather changes are influencing cities' emergency plans and designs for the future. Larry will talk about the MTA's response to crisis during Sandy, what the agency learned from the event and what urbanist principles can help mitigate weather-related destruction. Gary will paint a picture of the not-so-distant future by showcasing AECOM's work in preparing cities to tackle the challenges of climate change.
Join us for this discussion on how new urbanist neighborhood design may be a key to both confronting and mitigating climate change.
