Climate change isn’t coming — it’s already here.

Climate change threatens our buildings, including those with heritage value. Stronger winds and intense rain make proper maintenance more important than ever.

Wetter winters, wilder storms, and hotter summers make home comfort harder. These issues will worsen until we stop burning oil, coal, and gas.
