Abstract:
The civil infrastructure of our communities is an outcome of past practices. These practices are being tested frequently under today’s realities, which include climate extremes as a major factor, and they catastrophically fail at an increasing rate. Infrastructure problems are often approached through siloed solutions to address a singular service: water supply, pollution control and stormwater diversion. While appropriate for the time, the changes in external and connected pressures require a new roadmap. To achieve the infrastructure resilience needed to manage and mitigate the impacts of climate change, population growth, economic and societal movements, we must envision a future that builds on today, yet provides a trajectory that is unlike our past. Our resilience is predicated on systems thinking, and our ability to do long-range planning for our water infrastructure considering phased and integrated implementation of innovative engineering and nature-based approaches. For that, we must start the resiliency journey of our water infrastructure by acting now and acting with urgency.
