On the National League of Cities website, AtkinsRéalis provides a glimpse of the firm’s City Simulator, a tool designed to help local leaders anticipate and plan for the impacts of climate change across interdependent infrastructure, utility, and social network systems. The simulator uses scenario modeling to help planners understand how their current baselines may change under various conditions, such as wildfires, flooding, or warming temperatures. Case studies from Atlanta and Boulder are described, with links to the results of both studies.
