Small population, isolated location, aging infrastructure, changing climate. The struggle is real for many small Town's across Newfoundland and Labrador - Baie Verte is certainly one of them. In this episode, Chief Administrative Officer, Amanda Humby, candidly describes the significant challenges Baie Verte is facing when it comes to infrastructure and sustainability. She talks about how a shared vision across all levels of government could help push forward the innovative solutions that we need to build climate resilience in our communities, no matter the size.
