Heavier rainstorms are leading to flooding in unexpected areas. That may be surprising given that two years ago most of Massachusetts experienced major drought. Our weather patterns are changing, and you need to be ready for it.
Communities in the Neponset River Watershed (Boston, Canton, Dedham, Foxborough, Medfield, Milton, Norwood, Sharon, Stoughton and Westwood) are working together to improve resilience to the heavy rains, heat waves and windstorms you've experienced more often.
You are a critical piece of this partnership. Your town leadership needs to know your top concerns. It's also important they know how you would like to see your city or town adapt to make your community a safer and healthier place to live, work and recreate.
Please take a few minutes to answer the questions below. Your responses will influence the scope and direction of this long-term partnership and help shape your community to withstand the impacts of climate change.
