Contents Notes |
This report highlights the important role of the federal government in reducing the vulnerability and strengthening the resiliency of the U.S. economy and natural resources in the face of climate change. Drawing on the expertise of local, state, federal, and international leaders in this area, the authors provide concrete proposals for "mainstreaming" climate change adaptation within and across the federal government. |
