00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,450
The Corps of Engineers has been doing similar things

2
00:00:02,760 --> 00:00:09,150
and that's, I believe the core of all

3
00:00:06,450 --> 00:00:13,889
of us, that are part of the team are from

4
00:00:09,150 --> 00:00:18,080
the core and the core and had started looking at it a while ago. 

5
00:00:13,889 --> 00:00:18,080
For example, the  defense Climate Assessment

6
00:00:18,359 --> 00:00:24,150
Tool is actually based on the Army 
7
00:00:20,939 --> 00:00:28,650
Climate Assessment Tool. So the climate change, 

8
00:00:24,150 --> 00:00:31,019
there's a community of practice within the Corps, 

9
00:00:28,650 --> 00:00:31,320
which has been looking at climate change 

10
00:00:31,019 --> 00:00:35,489
for a while now. And so that expertise has now

11
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:38,850
been brought into DOD to address the DOD side

12
00:00:35,489 --> 00:00:42,000
 of change. And it's, it's critical for the Army 

13
00:00:38,850 --> 00:00:45,030
as well, particularly for the civil works in 

14
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:49,890
particular because infrastructure projects we build 

15
00:00:45,030 --> 00:00:51,870
design, and particularly, those term risk or

16
00:00:49,890 --> 00:00:54,469
flooding and climate change considerations 

17
00:00:51,870 --> 00:00:54,469
are mandated across projects.
