|a The significant risks that climate change poses to human society and the
environment provide a strong motivation to move ahead with substantial
response efforts. Current efforts of local, state, and private sector
actors are important, but not likely to yield progress comparable to
what could be achieved with the addition of strong federal policies that
establish coherent national goals and incentives, and that promote
strong U.S. engagement in international-level response efforts. The inherent complexities and
uncertainties of climate change are best met by applying an iterative risk management framework
and making efforts to: significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions; prepare for
adapting to impacts; invest in scientific research, technology development, and information
systems; and facilitate engagement between scientific and technical experts and the many types
of stakeholders making America’s climate choices. |
