CE 5: Communicate climate action economic and development opportunities to stakeholder groups.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

​CE 5-1 Create an online Climate Economy Hub to provide information on the CAIP and identify resources available for business owners.

  •  Include a Funding Resources page to include information on incentives, grants, and other funding opportunities available for businesses to support climate action and resilience.
  •  Working with local partners, develop a community Green Jobs Bulletin Board promoting local green job opportunities and connecting local businesses with local job seekers.
  •  Collaborate with the regional partners to include an online tool on the Climate Economy Hub to support the assessment of business’ vulnerability/resiliency (refer to examples on row CE 221)

CE 5-2 Strengthen communications in support of business and eco​nomic​ climate resilience, the economic opportunities associated with climate action, and the goals of this plan. Effort should focus particularly on communications with disadvantaged group businesses (minority-owned, veteran-owned, economically-disadvantaged, etc.) and small businesses.
