With climate change impacting communities across the country, Erin Kelly examined how better stewardship of vacant land could help with mitigation and adaptation efforts. By leveraging climate adaptation financing, the lives of people living near thousands of these vacant properties could be improved. Erin is working to create a national atlas of vacant land within the millions of acres managed by land banks and land trusts to illustrate the opportunity and facilitate investment, research, collaboration, and advocacy at the national level.
