Climate City Innovation Special: Street smarts in Hobart
Australia's second-oldest capital is jumping into the future climate-first with its new Climate Futures Strategy, which involves modelling potential climate impacts across Tasmania with the support of the Antarctic Climate and Ecosystems Cooperative Research Centre.
Fostering the development of Local Government Area Climate Profiles, a range of climate variables were factored into the decision-making process to examine potential challenges Hobart and the rest of Tasmania may face in the decades leading up to 2100. Working with the community to build a Climate Strategy, the broader Hobart community across all sectors was brought into the consultation process from October through December 2023.
The Strategy will outline the actions Hobart knows it must take as a Council and a community to reach the intended goal of a Climate Ready Hobart.
In this episode we hear from Lord Mayor Anna Reynolds, talking about research and innovation in the City of Hobart, and how it will shape the new City climate-ready. Jess Robbins, Climate Futures Lead, City of Hobart talks aout the participatory process underway to develop the new strategy, - and speak with ICLEI World Secretariat's Pourya Salehi to understand just how important digital transformations are for city climate action.
The City Climate Innovation podcast series is produced by GCoM and the Melbourne Centre for Cities at the University of Melbourne, and is produced on the lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung People of the Kulin Nation. We pay respect to Elders past, present, and emerging.
Our theme music is by Music for a Warming World.
