 , PhD candidate\, School of Planning\, University of Waterloo\n\n– \n\n
 As climate change brings more extreme heat\, flooding\, and other challeng
 es\, Ontario municipalities are looking for ways to make communities more 
 resilient to its impacts. Natural features such as trees\, wetlands\, and 
 green spaces can help neighbourhoods reduce heat\, manage flood risks\, an
 d improve residents' quality of life. This presentation explores how these
  nature-based solutions are considered in residential development and high
 lights opportunities to make greater use of them in municipal planning.\n\
