Resilient Success Stories

MARC, in partnership with Climate Action KC, is proud to highlight success stories from around the region in innovation and commitment, green infrastructure and local government sustainability. Momentum is building throughout the region to transform our community in ways that create greater levels of climate resilience. 

To embrace and accelerate positive change, our Resilient Success Stories event highlights policies, plans, projects and practices discovered among submissions from public, private and nonprofit sectors, and from interested community members. 

Resilient Success Stories builds on years of highlighting "Sustainable Success Stories", and judges especially bring attention to efforts that focus on one or more of the seven categories within the KC Regional Climate Action Plan, including transportation, energy generation, finance and innovation, urban greening, healthy resilient homes, food systems, and industry and resource management.

The event will showcase economic and environmental success stories across the region, highlighted by a handful of presenters selected by our committee. Up-and-coming projects will also be introduced during our first-ever "pitch-a-thon" competition.
