    Costing what the national plan left blank

    9 minNo file attached in the prototype

    National adaptation plans frequently cost a priority at a national scale, or not at all. This lecture builds a bottom-up cost for one localised action - a coastal buffer strip for a specific stretch of shoreline - including the maintenance line that most provincial submissions leave out.

    A range, honestly bounded, survives review

    A single costed figure invites challenge the moment ground conditions differ from the assumption behind it. A cost presented as a bounded range, with the assumptions stated, survives scrutiny because it has already admitted where it could be wrong.
