“On July 15, IEC continued the four-part webinar series, Understanding Iowa’s Changing Climate, focusing on climate resiliency and preparedness. This webinar includes information on the hydroclimate whiplash; from prolonged drought to severe floods, Iowa communities face unique challenges ahead. Severe droughts, sudden flash floods, and elongated heat waves can all have devastating impacts to a community’s water systems. Public water utility experts from the Iowa Stormwater Education Partnership, City of Clive, and Des Moines Water Works discussed the challenges to addressing floods, keeping infrastructure productive, and providing clean, affordable drinking water in the wake of these climate change events.”
