National Climate Assessment report describes impacts of climate change in U.S.

On May 6, the Third National Climate Assessment (NCA), Climate Change Impacts in the United States, was released by the U.S. Global Change Research Program. The comprehensive 829-page report assesses the science of climate change, and the impacts of climate change occurring now and through the 21st century, with the goal of better informing public and private decision-making at all levels. WWA’s Kristen Averyt was a lead author of the “Energy, Water, and Land Use” chapter. Kristen and several other WWA team members also contributed to regional and sectoral reports used as technical input for the NCA report. Explore the findings and download the NCA report here.
