DESCRIPTION: SPUR’s latest report, Look Out Below, examines how rising groundwater is likely to affect one Bay Area city: East Palo Alto. SPUR partnered with community-based organization Nuestra Casa and examined recent scientific studies to learn more about the threat and potential policy responses. The report explains specific risks and offers five recommendations — all applicable to other Bayshore cities.\n\nJoin SPUR and our partners to explore the current tide of knowledge on groundwater rise and combined coastal flood impacts, highlight pivotal community-based organizations and partnerships emerging in San Mateo County, and dive into regional policy challenges and opportunities. Speakers include representatives from Nuestra Casa, Youth United for Community Action, Climate Resilient Communities, Pathways Climate Institute, and the Bay Conservation and Development Commission. This event promises to be an informative and collaborative session for regional stakeholders, guaranteed to make a big splash in your understanding of these critical issues.\n\nPanelists:\n\nModerator: Sarah Atkinson / Hazard Resilience Sr. Policy Manager, SPUR\nOsvaldo Macias / Environmental Justice Fellow at Nuestra Casa\nCade Cannedy / Director of Programs at Climate Resilient Communities\nMoana Kofutua / Senior Youth Organizer for Youth United for Community Action\nDaisy Ramirez Lopez / Pathways Climate Institute\nLen Materman / Chief Executive Officer at Oneshoreline\nDana Brechwald / Assistant Planning Director for Climate Adaptation at the Bay Conservation Development Commission\n\nDowntown First Thursdays, hosted by Into the Streets SF, will also be taking place this evening.
