Understanding perceived climate risks to household water supply and their implications for adaptation: evidence from California

Abstract: Rapid adaptation is necessary to maintain, let alone expand, access to reliable, safe drinking water in the face of climate change. Existing research focuses largely on the role, priorities, and incentives of local managers to pursue adaptation strategies while mostly neglecting the role of the broader public, despite the strong public support required to fund and implement many climate adaptation plans. In this paper, we interrogate the relationship between personal experiences of household water supply impac… Show more

“…While in this study we do not consider the performance of receiving water systems and therefore cannot asses the safe water access implications of these projects, combined, these findings indicate that, to the extent receiving water systems are operating in compliance with federal and state drinking water regulations, consolidation likely does have the potential to help advance access to safe drinking water beyond simply reducing system fragmentation (McFarlane & Harris, 2018). That disasters were the second most common motivating factor for consolidation highlights an additionally important role for consolidation in responding to climate change and building community resilience (Dobbin et al., 2023; Mullin, 2020).…”
