Over a thousand people decided to take the Niagara Adapts survey.

About 74 percent believe climate change is impacting their community and 87 percent believe we have the power to address it.

About 63 percent of the survey respondents were women.

This survey was part of the Niagara Adapts Partnership.

Brock University has teamed up with seven Niagara municipalities to develop and implement climate adaptation plans;

- Niagara Falls
