Outcomes - Adaptation and Resilience

A.   The Noosa Council and Noosa community are better prepared for natural
     hazards and climate change through identification and mapping of natural
     hazards, proactive planning, risk reduction and information sharing.
B.   Noosa’s natural environment is prepared for climate change through
     the maintenance, restoration and increase of healthy, well-functioning
     ecosystems that facilitate diversity and movement of species both within and
     beyond Noosa Shire.
C.   Disruptions to local economic activity and communities due to climate factors
     are kept to a minimum.
D.   Risk assessments, climate adaptation and disaster management are well
     integrated and use best available information to inform decision-making,
     systems and processes.
E.   Strong ongoing partnerships are established to improve understanding and
     action on climate adaptation for households, businesses, assets owners,
     communities and government.
F.   Understanding of likely responses of biodiversity and ecosystems to climate
     change is improved over time and management programs are adjusted
     where necessary.
G.   Transport options for residents and visitors reduce greenhouse gas emissions
     and minimise other environmental impacts.
