Develop and implement a roadmap for local climate change, that is led by the community.
Justification
We already have access to locally relevant information on changes to our climatic conditions and there is a growing level of support at all levels for action on climate change. We can build on this to identify opportunities to increase resilience across the region for our terrestrial and aquatic habitats, industries and communities.
Examples of Local Action
- Use existing planning frameworks eg. FNQROC Plan and Mareeba Shire Council Biosecurity Plan to implement land management practices and relevant on-ground works with delivery partners, that take into account climate change.
