CLIMATE THREATS, DISASTER RESPONSE

& RESILIENCE

CLIMATE RESILIENCE = the ability of our social and ecological systems to withstand and adapt to the variable and extreme conditions

associated with climate change.

"This is the new normal … this could be something that

happens every year or every few years,”

Former GovernorJerry Brown

CLIMATE THREATS ON THE CENTRAL COAST

Central Coast: Population 2.3 million

SEA LEVEL RISE

The Central Coast comprises about 44% of California's coastline

Critical infrastructure at risk: Hwy 101, the airport, and the wastewater treatment & desal plants.

SEA LEVEL RISE + STORM SURGE

EXTREME HEAT

Elevated risks for outdoor workers: 71,500+ people employed in the ag sector in the 6 counties

LONGER DROUGHTS

Agriculture is a key industry for all of the 6 Central Coast counties.

INCREASED FIRE DANGER

6 of the 15 largest wildfires in California

have been in the Central Coast region

INCREASED ENERGY NEEDS

Power outages are borne the most

heavily by the most vulnerable.

The Central Coast region has installed

more than1.3 gigawatts of solar

BUILDING A RESILIENT ENERGY SYSTEM

Many cities on the Central Coast boast electric vehicle adoption rates at 3 to 4 times the national average.

Which California communities are most vulnerable to wildfires?

Higher rates of poverty, age, and disability in communities make them more vulnerable to disasters – and make it more difficult to recover.

Environmental & Climate Justice on the Central Coast: A Funders Briefing

Advancing Equitable Climate and Disaster Resilience

Alan Kwok, PhDDirector of Disaster Resilience

Northern California Grantmakers

Working together to increase our impact in building and sustaining thriving, equitable communities.

Intersection of Climate Justice and Disaster Resilience

Health outcomes

Educational outcomes

Social cohesion

Ecosystem services

Wealth inequities

Policies and Programs

(e.g., Those relating to Mitigation, Adaptation, Preparedness, Response and Recovery)

Inequities along the lines of Race, Gender, Income

Two sides of the same coin

Climate Justice = Disaster Resilience

Embedding equity…

Hazard risk management

Mitigation (e.g., decarbonization, fuel reduction)

Adaptation (e.g., economic transition, strengthening structures)

Preparedness (e.g., risk education, communication)

Disaster management

Relief and response (e.g., immediate needs, housing stabilization)

Recovery (e.g., permanent housing, economic diversification)

Just RecoveryJust Transition

Philanthropy and Climate Justice/Disaster Resilience

• Not enough of it• Not dispersed at the right time• Not dispersed to the right things• Not going in the right places

“Less than 2 percent of philanthropic dollars are currently spent in the fight against climate change, much too little given the threat we face.” Larry Kramer, Hewlett Foundation

Measuring the State of Disaster Philanthropy 2018

Up to $11 saved per $1 invested in Mitigation

National Institute of Building Sciences 2018

CalEnvironScreen 2018 CalFire / KQED 2019

Role of Philanthropy CA in Advancing Equitable Climate and Disaster Resilience

Goal: Move more money to the right things, at the right time, and in the right places to ensure Just Transition and Just Recovery.

Key Strategies with Equity Embedded:

• Changing narrative and storytelling• Creating a platform for learning, collaborating, and coordinating• Developing tools• Advancing advocacy

Air Quality During Wildfire

Safe Drinking Water Access

Worker Impacts: Farmworkers

Systemic and Policy Change

•Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties hire bilingual Public Information Officers•AB 1877: Language access for emergency information (Passed last year)•Newsom includes $50 million in budget for disaster resilience for vulnerable and marginalized communities•SB 160: Equity and inclusion in disaster planning •Ventura County General Plan includes language on equity and disaster resilience•State passes outdoor worker wildfire smoke safety standard•Long term goal: state disaster relief funds for all regardless of immigration status

Applying this Framework to Other Climate Threats

Sea Level Rise• Limits of risk mapping: Who depends on the coast for

economic survival? Who needs it for outdoor recreation and cooling?

• Beyond property: What health hazards could result from flooding of coastal industrial sites? What jobs and economic livelihoods could be disrupted?

• Existing injustice: Which coastal communities have been used as industrial dumping grounds? Which coastal workers are economically insecure?

not at all serious

How serious of a threat is global warming to the economy and quality of life for California's future?

AND THE CLIMATE GAP IS REAL IN ANOTHER WAY

MOREOVER, EJ CAN BE GOOD FOR ALL

In regions with higher disparities in exposure rates between whites and people of color, exposure rates are higher—for everyone.

Average exposure by race/ethnicity in Metros with low, medium and high minority discrepancy scores

Source: Michael Ash et al., Is Environmental Justice Good for White Folks? (Amherst, MA: University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Department of Economics, Working Paper 2010-05, July 2010).

EJ efforts originally focused on disparate siting of hazardous development & disparate exposure to toxic air

But today’s efforts are about providing benefits to communities as well as reducing burdens.

• Yet alone are insufficient to gain influence over decision-makers

• Thus require an ecosystem of capacities–tailored to achieve an inclusive democracy and to close economic and racial equity gaps
