Dear Friend,

In response to recent storms and the impacts on Maine and Maine's people, Governor Janet Mills has called a special meeting of the Maine Climate Council for next Tuesday, January 23, 2024, to focus on how the state can strengthen its resilience to future extreme weather events.

During the meeting, the Governor and Council will hear from agencies on the frontline of the storm response, communities that experienced significant damage and flooding from the recent storms, about trends in extreme storms in Maine, and strategies for strengthening resilience on the state and local level that includes perspectives from leaders in other states.

Following the discussion, the Council will engage in a dialogue about setting priorities for strengthening Maine’s resilience to extreme storms in the upcoming climate plan.
