Climate adaptation. In the current overview plan, the municipality's ecosystem services and green blue values have been given a great deal of space. A green-blue structure integrates green areas and surface water management with urban development and leads to better conditions for managing future climate change. To manage the surface water in Barkarbystaden, a multifunctional park, Kyrkparken, has been developed. Kyrkparken’s facility consists of several ponds, in which water is both purified, delayed and stored while being led away from the park area. Kyrkparken was designed to fulfil several functions, both from a climate adaptation perspective and also to promote recreation and social interaction. An overall climate and vulnerability analysis has been carried out, which indicated the measures that the municipality should prioritise to ensure a resilient society. Some measures have been initiated, such as establishing information material aimed at the municipality's residents to increase knowledge about climate change and how property owners can take preventive measures. Järfälla also runs the Vinnova-financed project SVIKT (Smart plants in the service of climate). The project will test and develop new, cost-effective and scalable methods for the absorption of carbon dioxide and the purification of contaminated soil. Järfälla municipality has also been granted funding from the County Administrative Board to produce information material aimed at residents and property owners in Järfälla municipality, with the aim of increasing their knowledge and preparedness for extreme weather events. To meet future climate change, the climate adaptation perspective needs to be raised and integrated even more clearly into the community planning process. New technologies for surface water management and carbon dioxide storage can be tested, while natural ecosystem services and existing green areas are preserved where possible. In the municipality's proposed budget for 2022, the Municipal Director has been assigned the task of studying the cost and readiness to transition the municipality to a changed climate. The study will focus on heat waves, floods and lack of drinking water, and will be complemented by MSB directives and guidance.
