Event Description:
Released in November 2023, the Fifth National Climate Assessment (NCA5) is the US Government’s preeminent report on climate change impacts, risks and responses. Led by the U.S. Global Research Program (USGCRP) and its 14 member agencies, including the US EPA, NCA5 draws on the expertise of nearly 500 authors and 250 contributors from every state, as well as Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. EPA contributed to chapters on air quality, energy, forests, coasts, ecosystems, social systems and justice, economics, as well as regional and response chapters and the overview. This webinar will provide an introduction and overview of the 5th National Climate Assessment. It will walk through the major findings presented in the Overview chapter and provide a demonstration of how to navigate the online report and resources. It will also highlight some of the new features of NCA5, such as Art × Climate, which is the first art gallery to be featured in the NCA. It will guide users to resources including podcasts, recorded webinars, and Spanish translations of the NCA5 chapters. The webinar will also specifically highlight and demo the NCA Interactive Atlas, which provides access to the data compiled for NCA5 and enables users to do custom analysis and mapping. |
