Climate Ready Communities Survey

Climate Vulnerability Survey

We are updating the City of Bloomington’s Climate Risk and Vulnerability Assessment that was initially created in 2020 to help our community adapt to climate change impacts that are underway and expected to increase over time. 

Climate Change Impacts in Bloomington, IN 

• From 1950 to 2020, the annual average temperature in Bloomington increased by approximately 1.2°F

• Hotter summers and milder winters may become the new normal, impacting public health, energy demand, and the local economy.

• Extreme precipitation events, defined as heavy downpours, have become more frequent in recent years. These intense rain events can lead to localized flooding, placing strain on infrastructure, property, and public safety.

We need your help to understand how climate change will affect our community and the people who live here. 

Your responses will become part of a larger report that will identify ways to prepare our community for these changes. 

Please take a few minutes to answer our brief survey.
