According to the federal government's latest National Climate Assessment, published last week, the planet will continue to warm as our cars, buildings, refineries, large industries, and power plants burn fossil fuels, emitting harmful and noxious greenhouse gases. Like the rest of the world, the Northwest is at risk. Washington, Oregon and Idaho are home to some 14 million people and 43 Native American tribes. The region is already experiencing climate change and more will come in the decades ahead, the state's climatologist and one of the report's authors told The Seattle Times. https://bityl.co/QV0f

"It's not distant in time and space; it's very much here and now and will get much worse if we do not reduce carbon pollution quickly" — Anthony Leiserowitz, founder and director of the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication. A team of researchers has found that talking about the links between climate change and extreme weather events is not only scientifically valid but is a powerful way to help people connect their own lives and experiences to the issue of climate change. https://yse.to/gl #ClimateWeekNYC #YaleAtClimateWeek

While the most visible impacts of climate change are often seen in the destruction of value and the uncertainty it brings, it also holds the potential to create value. In this Horizons article, we explore how societies have adapted to climate change in the past, offering inspiration for investing in more climate-resilient food and energy systems for the future. #ClimateFinance #ClimateChange
