InterContinental Hotel San Francisco
San Francisco is vulnerable to the effects of earthquakes and sea level rise. Earthquakes have historically caused devastation through loss of lives and severe damage to our built environment. Rising bay and coastal water levels already adversely affect San Francisco with periodic flooding of low-lying shoreline areas and increased shoreline erosion. The high probability of earthquakes and anticipated sea level rise pose profound risks to San Francisco’s waterfront infrastructure, water delivery and treatment systems, and the operation of the San Francisco International Airport.
The concept of planning for Resiliency has gained widespread adoption over the past few years. This involves anticipating and understanding the risks and potential impacts from threats, including earthquakes and sea level rise. City planners and policy makers must address significant possible near-term and long-term challenges in creating a resilient city.
Join AAAE and its guests to hear from San Francisco’s premier leaders who are shaping policy and driving initiatives to promote a resilient San Francisco for all its residents and visitors.
