TAKE THE MAUI CLIMATE SURVEY
The County of Maui Office of Climate Change, Resiliency, and Sustainability (CCRS) under Office of the Mayor is developing a Climate Action and Resilience Plan (CARP) to help our community plan for and adapt to climate change impacts that are underway and expected to increase over time.
We need your help to understand how climate change impacts will affect our community
and the people who live here.
Your responses will help to inform a climate change vulnerability assessment and action plan that will guide the County of Maui as it determines the best ways to prepare our community for these changes.
Please take a few minutes to answer this survey.
