PowerPoint Presentation (uconn.edu)
Voters on November 8 authorized the New York State to issue $4.2 billion in bonds to finance projects for climate-mitigation, flood-risk reduction, water infrastructure, land conservation and recreation.
Little noted in news coverage is the multiplier effect of the state's funding: proceeds from the state's bonds can qualify as the non-federal match for federally funded projects, thereby expanding the value of grants from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the Inflation Reduction Act and other federal programs.

Green Infrastructure Funding Microsite
The National Wildlife Federation (NWF) launched a new funding microsite for communities interested in pursuing federal funding and/or technical assistance for nature-based solutions and green infrastructure projects. The interactive database allows users to search and sort the more than 70 types of federal grants that fund nature-based solutions based on factors such as eligible recipients, project purpose, and the match required. It also provides information about the typical application cycles, and contact information for each program. Access the database here
New Roadmap to Accelerate Nature-Based Solutions for Climate Progress and Equity
The Whitehouse released a Roadmap and over 100 federal informational resources to scale-up nature-based solutions to address climate change, nature loss and inequity. The reports, announced in November during the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change’s 27th Conference of the Parties (COP27) in Egypt, respond to a call from President Biden earlier this year to identify opportunities to expand the use of nature-based solutions across the federal government.
