Broadening resilience: An evaluation of policy and planning for drinking water resilience in 100 US cities
Around the world, drinking water systems provide safe, accessible drinking water to the communities they serve. While they are faced with a growing number of short and long-term challenges, assessing the resilience of drinking water systems—or their ability to cope with disturbances and surprise and continuously adapt to stress and change—is an ongoing challenge. Many drinking water resilience assessment methodologies focus narrowly on the technical dimensions of the resilience of infrastructure systems, ignoring the human or environmental dimensions, and consider resilience to the present, ignoring resilience to future change. To fill this gap, we developed a conceptual framework and scoring methodology for evaluating municipal-scale policy and planning for drinking water system resilience. Our approach considers social, technical, and environmental elements of resilience at broad spatial and temporal scales. We then used this methodology to assess policy and planning for drinking water resilience in 100 U.S. cities. We found that municipalities are at very different stages in their policy and planning for drinking water resilience, particularly in terms of the attention they give to climate change and their consideration of the broader social dimensions of resilience. Overall, larger cities and those with more liberal populations are likely to have higher policy and planning scores. The findings highlight the variation in municipal policy and planning for drinking water system resilience, and the importance of community characteristics as drivers of resilience planning. Our approach is transferable to assessing resilience for drinking water systems within and beyond the U.S.
期刊介绍:
Global Environmental Change is a prestigious international journal that publishes articles of high quality, both theoretically and empirically rigorous. The journal aims to contribute to the understanding of global environmental change from the perspectives of human and policy dimensions. Specifically, it considers global environmental change as the result of processes occurring at the local level, but with wide-ranging impacts on various spatial, temporal, and socio-political scales.
In terms of content, the journal seeks articles with a strong social science component. This includes research that examines the societal drivers and consequences of environmental change, as well as social and policy processes that aim to address these challenges. While the journal covers a broad range of topics, including biodiversity and ecosystem services, climate, coasts, food systems, land use and land cover, oceans, urban areas, and water resources, it also welcomes contributions that investigate the drivers, consequences, and management of other areas affected by environmental change.
Overall, Global Environmental Change encourages research that deepens our understanding of the complex interactions between human activities and the environment, with the goal of informing policy and decision-making.
