AROUND 40 people attended a climate change preparation meeting at Frankston Library last Tuesday. The “HeatSafe Frankston” event was hosted by Sweltering Cities, and sponsored by CoPower. Guests were informed on how to prepare for increased heat and more extreme weather events.

Speakers included Frankston councillor Claire Harvey, Sweltering Cities’ Sophie Emder, and Dr Geneivieve Cowie from Doctors for the Environment Australia. Harvey, the newly-appointed chair of the South East Councils Climate Change Alliance, said Frankston Council’s “climate change strategy, adopted last year, aims to deliver 57 actions over seven years through to 2030.”

“These actions include support for community programs building emergency preparedness and resilience to the impacts of climate change – particularly with residents most at risk – as well as supporting community programs to connect people, increase their knowledge of climate reality, and provide skills for effective advocacy and action,” she said.

The event was run by Alison Cooke. Act On Climate Victoria contributed heat mapping.
