We recognize that nationally there are disappointments for climate action, but politics is and should continue to be local.?With that said, we have hopeful news to lean into during this time. ?? Voters in California have passed Proposition 4, a transformative $10 billion bond for critical water, clean energy, and environmental projects. This measure will fund essential initiatives like safe drinking water, wildfire prevention, coastal protection, address extreme heat events and fund sustainable agriculture—projects that strengthen resilience to climate change and protect communities. Local government policies like these are vital in fostering sustainable futures. Kudos to the environmental advocates, labor unions, and community organizations championing these efforts. At MyClimateRx we will continue to support policies and uplift our local solutions that create lasting environmental and economic benefits! ?? #sustainability #climateaction #localgovernment #climateresiliency #climatepolicy

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently released a powerful environmental justice mapping tool called?EJScreen. It's an incredible resource that combines?government, foundation, and private sector data?to highlight environmental and demographic indicators within communities and how they are impacted by climate change.???? This interactive map offers detailed insights into?air quality, pollution levels, and socioeconomic factors?across the U.S., empowering educators, researchers, and the public with data that drives?public awareness?on inequities affecting vulnerable populations. At?MyClimateRx, we're striving to take this approach a step further by incorporating?location-specific solutions?to environmental risks, paired with?actionable information?that enhance community resilience. From identifying local climate challenges to providing resources that help mitigate those risks, our goal is to turn awareness into collective action.??? Let’s leverage these tools to create healthier, more resilient neighborhoods. Together, we can inspire lasting change!??? #EnvironmentalJustice #PublicAwareness #ClimateAction #ClimateSolutions #MyClimateRx #CommunitySolutions https://lnkd.in/dBhBT-gC

What a great resource for #Nashville! #Climatesolutions are at the heart of what we do here at MyClimateRx. It's inspiring to see how local areas communicate both the risks and how to be more resilient.

The devastating flooding in Western North Carolina is a heartbreaking reminder of how rapidly our communities are being impacted by extreme weather events. Our thoughts are with everyone affected, and we're grateful to the first responders and volunteers working tirelessly to aid recovery efforts. In trying to understand the impact, we went in search in data and found these astounding measurements from NOAA Flood Gauges in the area. The French Broad River at Fletcher (about 20 miles upstream from Asheville) reached more than 10 feet higher than last record that was just set in 2004. Many river gauges in the area continue to be out of service so we'll be keen to know the full extent of the flooding once that data becomes available. Events like these reinforce the urgency of cataloging climate risk data. Tools like FEMA’s National Risk Index (NRI) map?(https://lnkd.in/ge6fiu3K)?help communities understand their specific vulnerabilities. By leveraging this data and matching it to local climate solutions, we can create tailored strategies to mitigate future disasters. From investing in green infrastructure to improving flood management systems, solutions are out there. The key is connecting data-driven insights with local needs to protect lives, homes, and livelihoods. Climate adaptation and mitigation isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach. We must prioritize collaboration with local governments, businesses, and communities to ensure preparedness and reduce vulnerability in the face of an increasingly unpredictable climate. #climaterisks #wncflooding #climatesolutions #climatedata

MyClimateRx was officially released to the public during LA Climate Week where we hosted an event sharing our progress as an incubated project during Climatebase turned startup. We also discussed our learnings about LA's food and ag ecosystem, while welcoming interactions from the audience. We launched our full website - myclimaterx.com We made the connections as we learned of potential or interested investors, partners, or sponsors including Los Angeles Food Policy Council Larta Institute The Collidescope Foundation Terra.do We heard inspiring words from Chelsea Byers Nancy Sutley JC Arce Dan Thorman Jerome Foster II J. Aniece Adams Aura Vasquez Isaias Hernandez Plant Based Treaty Shawn Sweeney, M.Ed. and so much more! We are activated and ready to take action, will you join us?

The food and ag discussion as it relates to combating climate change continues to be featured at this year’s climate weeks from LA Climate Week to New York Climate Week. At MyClimateRx - we keep our fingers on the pulse through events like these while also seeking to strengthen connections across the #foodandag ecosystem. #climate #tech #community

Did you attend our session? If not, we’ll be sharing a recording for registered participants and anyone who reaches out directly. We are on a mission to build a more connected ecosystem of #food and #regenerative #agriculture solutions for LA #communities to take action to combat #climatechange

As part of LA Climate Week our LA-based startup is sharing what we've learned about the #food and #agriculture ecosystem, the solutions available to combat climate change impacts that impact human and planetary health, and demo our MVP, and continue making connections as we grow. Come gather with us! ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ??

This article about differing flood risk models in the Los Angeles area highlights the growing field of these kinds of private risk models and the importance of consulting a lot of different sources in decision making. #climatedata #climatesolutions #mappingrisks https://lnkd.in/eqMC9dWx
