In case you hadn't yet been made aware of this organization, the U.S. Resiliency Council states their mission and vision as “improving community resilience, through a focus on engineering, equity, environment and economics” in support of a "future where we not only have a low impact on the environment, the environment has a low impact on us.“ The Council web page (linked above) provides significant resources to assist designers, builders and owners.

The Urban Land Institute defines "Building resilience" as "identifying and investing in places and infrastructure that are the most likely to endure." That's the answer in a nutshell. So please read on! I welcome your feedback!
