|a A strong, credible body of scientific evidence shows that climate change
is occurring, is caused largely by human activities, and poses significant
risks for a broad range of human and natural systems. As decision
makers respond to these risks, the nation’s scientific enterprise can
contribute both by continuing to improve understanding of the causes and consequences of
climate change, and by improving and expanding the options available to limit the magnitude
of climate change and to adapt to its impacts. To do so, the nation needs a comprehensive,
integrated, and flexible climate change research enterprise that is closely linked with actionoriented
programs at all levels. Also needed are a comprehensive climate observing system,
improved climate models and other analytical tools, investments in human capital, and better
linkages between research and decision making. |
