| Resilient design strategies refer to approaches that aim to create buildings, homes, and infrastructure that can withstand and recover from the impacts of various natural and human-made hazards, including climate change. Climate resilient homes and architecture involve incorporating design features that can withstand extreme weather conditions, such as heatwaves, storms, floods, and wildfires, and mitigate their effects on occupants and the environment. These strategies include improving building envelopes, using energy-efficient materials, incorporating passive heating and cooling systems, and utilizing renewable energy sources. Building climate resilience also involves developing and implementing comprehensive plans and policies that prioritize the safety and well-being of communities, infrastructure, and the environment. By embracing resilient design strategies, we can create a more sustainable and resilient built environment that can adapt to the changing climate and protect us from its impacts. |
