Climate change impacts all of us.
Weather and climate events have an annual impact of trillions of dollars on the global economy and remain top concerns of leaders worldwide according to the World Economic Forum’s Global Risks Report. As reported by the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the U.S. has sustained 273 weather & climate disasters since 1980 where overall damages/costs reached or exceeded $1 billion.
The evidence is clear.
With observational evidence mounting, there can be little doubt that humans have influenced and continue to influence the world’s climate. Climate change is not new, and our climate has undergone many transformations over millions of years. There is increasing evidence it has been accelerated, if not exacerbated, by humankind over the last several decades by the burning of fossil fuels.
Science drives us forward.
As an organization steeped in science, we use our various media and digital platforms, along with our weather and climate expertise, to promote better, safer, and more healthful conditions for all people.
Protecting people and the planet.
We achieve these goals by providing the most accurate weather and climate forecasts; comprehensive analysis, reporting, and awareness of climate change, and the continued development of superior products to help people and businesses make better decisions as our climate changes.
Climate change is a matter of intense interest and global importance. Weather and climate events have an annual impact of trillions of dollars on the global economy and remain top concerns of leaders worldwide impacting people, communities, and businesses, according to the World Economic Forum’s Global Risks Report. From historic floods to devastating wildfires to extended hurricane seasons, warming planet is disrupting lives and communities at a relentless pace. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reports that the U.S. has sustained 308 weather and climate disasters since 1980, causing damages/costs that have reached or exceeded $1 billion.
The evidence is clear, with observational evidence mounting, there can be little doubt that humans are contributing to global warming and continue to influence the world’s climate. Climate change is not new, and our climate has undergone many transformations over millions of years. Yet, there is overwhelming evidence it has been accelerated, by humankind especially over the last several decades by the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, and the role of methane gas.
