  • Summary

  • In episode 216 of America Adapts, I’m joined by Sara Bronin, Chair of the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, or ACHP. We dive into the vital work the agency does to protect our nation’s historic sites, with a focus on its regulatory responsibilities, especially the Section 106 review process. Sara also shares how the ACHP is incorporating Indigenous knowledge into preservation practices, and we discuss the growing need to streamline approvals for climate-resilient projects. Plus, we touch on the challenge of community relocation due to climate impacts, highlighting the importance of planning and collaboration in these efforts. This episode sheds light on the critical intersection of historic preservation and climate adaptation, offering valuable insights on how communities can work together to preserve their heritage while adapting to our changing climate.

Policy Statement on Climate Change and Historic Preservation: In 2023, ACHP adopted a policy statement that provides a clearer framework for federal agencies to collaborate on preserving historic properties while adapting them to withstand climate impacts. U.S. Climate Heritage in the International Context: On Oct. 4, ACHP co-sponsored a Climate Heritage Policy Conference in Washington, D.C., focusing on the lessons the U.S. can draw from other countries to more effectively integrate cultural preservation and climate change mitigation efforts.
