Fourth National Climate Assessment – Tribes and Indigenous Peoples webinar

February 7, 10 AM: Fourth National Climate Assessment – Tribes and Indigenous Peoples webinar. This webinar is an installment of the Topics in Climate Change Adaptation Planning webinar series hosted by the Institute for Tribal Environmental Professionals (ITEP) Climate Change Program.  Volume II of the Fourth National Climate Assessment (NCA4) summarizes the impacts of climate change on the United States, now and in the future. A team of more than 300 experts guided by a Federal Steering Committee produced the report, which was extensively reviewed by the public and experts, including federal agencies and a panel of the National Academy of Sciences. The report includes a Tribes and Indigenous Peoples chapter (Chapter 15) as well as regional and sectoral chapters. Join us as NCA4 authors share an overview of the recently released assessment. Hear about how authors integrated indigenous issues and actions across the entire NCA4 through communicating with regional and sectoral chapter leads and supporting opportunities for input from tribes. In addition to the review of NCA4 an interactive mapping application will also be demonstrated. https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/5749035536382475778
