Geos institute builds innovative systems to help communities access the support services they need to address the climate crisis regardless of thier size, location, or wealth.
The Geos Institute's primary focus is developing Climate Ready America - a nationwide system of climate services to help communities address the causes and impacts of climate change regardless of their location, size, or wealth. Working across all states,territories, and Tribal regions, this system will ensure that local governments can access the help they need to build climate resilience. The Institute's Climate Ready Communities program, an assisted do-it-yourself climate resilience planning program for small to mid-sized and under-resourced communities, sits within the Climate Ready America initiative. The Institute is a Core Team member of the Climate Smart Communities Initiative. In this role, it disburses grant funds to projects selected by the Initiative, communicates project successes, and provides climate resilience support to grantees.
