Climate Risk Assessment Survey

December 22, 2025

Municipality Encouraging Residents to Complete Climate Risk Survey

The Municipality of Inverness County is inviting residents to participate in a short survey that will help inform a climate risk assessment and adaptation plan currently underway across several municipalities in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland & Labrador.

The survey, developed by McAllister & Craig Disaster Management Inc., asks residents to share their perspectives on climate-related risks in their communities, such as storms, flooding, wildfires, and other potential emergencies. The feedback collected will help ensure the assessment and resulting adaptation plan reflect local concerns and priorities.

The survey takes only a few minutes to complete and is an important opportunity for residents to contribute to planning efforts that will strengthen community preparedness and resilience. To complete the survey, visit www.surveymonkey.com/r/HazardSurveyDecember2025.

The survey is open until January 7, 2026.

About the project

The climate risk assessment and adaptation plan is funded through the Green Municipal Fund, administered by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities. Led by McAllister & Craig Disaster Management Inc., the project involves identifying climate-related risks across Inverness County, evaluating how climate change may impact local communities, and developing strategies to address these risks.

McAllister & Craig are engaging with municipal staff and the public to gather data which will be used to create a plan that ensures climate risks are identified and communities are prepared and protected.
