Preparing for climate change will enhance the safety, well-being, and livelihoods of American citizens and minimize disruption of the services on which they depend. With leadership and coordination from the Task Force, Federal agencies are making important progress on identifying and managing risks associated with climate change. In particular, significant interagency efforts are underway to make information on climate impacts more accessible and useful to communities and decision makers across the country, effectively manage natural resources and critical U.S. infrastructure, and enhance efforts to promote adaptation internationally.
