The document discusses efforts to address climate change in rural communities through the Rural Climate Dialogues partnership and Rural Climate Network. The Rural Climate Dialogues are 3-day events in Minnesota communities to study local climate impacts and develop responses, gathering a representative group of residents and local experts. Priorities identified are assisted with funding. The Rural Climate Network shares information between 50 rural climate groups nationwide to elevate rural perspectives in policy. They provide policy recommendations in areas like agriculture and energy shaped by principles of resilience and equity.
