Climate
We help you adapt to a ever-changing environmental landscape.
From coastal resilience to drinking water protection to mangrove restoration, HW helps communities, agencies, and tribes adapt the places they live and work to a climate that won't stay still.
Coastlines are moving. Storms are larger. Aging water and wastewater systems are expected to handle conditions they were never engineered for. The communities feeling this first are often the ones with the least ability to adapt on their own.
HW's climate work sits at the intersection of engineering, ecology, planning, and policy — because adapting infrastructure to climate change isn't really a single discipline. It's a partnership between people who design systems, people who understand natural ones, and the communities that live with both.
We bring 35+ years of practice in nature-based solutions, watershed and coastal work, comprehensive planning, and federal-scale resilience programs — including a five-year, $10M EPA contract supporting drinking water and wastewater systems against natural disasters and climate change.
