Stephanie Santell, Senior Advisor in EPA’s Policy Office and Chair of the Resilient Infrastructure Work Group on Climate, joins us to discuss EPA’s new Climate Resilience and Adaptation Funding Toolbox (CRAFT) and so much more. This discussion provides a great summary of the purpose and function of the Federal Environmental Protection Agency (to protect the environment and human health) and some very innovative and exciting EPA programs. Stephanie discusses the agency’s activities, which includes climate considerations for all agencies' activities and offices. From a public service perspective, we discuss the new and exceptional CRAFT website, which provides very hands-on and user-friendly resources to help EPA’s funding applicants and recipients make climate-informed investments. CRAFT is chock-full of cool stuff. Check it out at https://www.epa.gov/resilient-investments.
