You can apply a "climate lens" or evaluation assessment tool, and integrate it into  standard operating procedure--it could become a required or recommended part of the way your organization or agency completes a permitting or financing process. An example of such a tool is the Climate Change Adaptation Certification Tool. This tool asks simple questions to quickly guide users through an evaluation to make a decision about the project’s suitability in the context of climate change risks and helps the user think through modifications needed to address identified risks.
