Climate change is here and now cities and communities must adapt for safety, health and quality of life. In this episode I discuss a useful model for thinking about climate adaptation in three levels: resilience,  transition and transformation.

I also provide some examples and ideas for bringing adaptation thinking into the work of urbanists.
