If you have a tourism industry in your local town, city or region; you need to discuss and plan to implement behaviors that will help to adapt to Climate Change. This is not weather change, I assume you all ready to that by preparing for hurricanes or tornados or flooding. What I am talking about is the fact that over years our climate will change, getting warmer, getting wetter or drier, certain plants not being able to grow anymore and others flourishing, animals changing and other qualities of our environment to numerous to mention. Will you help to prepare your grandchildren and their grandchildren or will you figure they will be able to figure it out when their time comes?
