If there is one thing that united every ATL-ien this summer (other than the World Cup) it's how much it rained.

But that rain impacted us all differently. Last month's flash flooding was so intense, it shut down the Downtown Connector, and it's part of a larger pattern. Black communities across the South face up to a 20% higher flood risk by 2050, the legacy of historic planning decisions now colliding with a warming climate. At Science ATL, we believe that the scientists, engineers, and planners shaping how our city responds should reflect the communities most affected. That's the future we're building toward. 🌎 #ScienceATL #ClimateJustice #STEMforAll #Atlanta
