Synopsis: In response to Public Law 110-161, the National Academies are conducting coordinated activities to study the issues associated with global climate change, including the science and technology challenges involved, and provide advice on the most promising strategies that can be taken to respond. These activities are intended to produce a broad, action-oriented, and authoritative set of analyses to inform and guide responses to climate change across the nation (http://americasclimatechoices.org). The purpose of the workshop is to solicit community input on questions and topics the study should address. Members of the study committee and staff will provide a study overview and lead a discussion.
