The day after Thanksgiving, the Trump Administration released Vol. 2 of the 4th National Climate Assessment (NCA4). This congressionally-mandated report explains how climate change is already impacting the United States and what is at risk if we fail to take aggressive action. It’s a helpful tool to inform the U.S. response to climate change.
But at 1,656-pages, it’s not exactly an easy read. So we’re doing some of the heavy lifting for you. Join climate and policy experts from Third Way and World Resources Institute for a briefing on the key findings of this new report, and how it can be useful for federal policymakers and their constituents.
Speakers include:
Andrew Light, World Resources Institute (NCA Report Review Editor)
Lindsey Walter, Third Way
Moderated by:
Christina DeConcini, World Resources Institute
