In the vibrant heart of New Orleans, the rising tides of climate change are met with an even stronger wave of local resilience. As the city grapples with escalating temperatures, sea level rise, and fiercer hurricane seasons, its residents don't just bear witness – they take action.
Groundwork USA and the Bezos Earth Fund are partnering to support locally led climate preparedness projects like this one in New Orleans. Together with community partners, the Groundwork New Orleans team is implementing nature-based solutions and utilizing green infrastructure along Touro Street and Claiborne Avenue.
