Welcome to the World Climate
Action web site.
This
site was developed by
The George Washington
University
in order to
provide current, multi-sectoral information about climate change action around the world. Because
climate change is occuring globally, this site will provide information
about science, events, and activities going on around the world.
In addition, The
George Washington University hosts a climate action site specific to the Washington, DC,
region. The University also offers climate-related courses and hosts an annual
Climate Action Conference
.
OUR VISION: To provide a comprehensive climate action hub for sharing
information and ideas among the public, for-profit companies, non-profit
organizations, and governments in the DC Metro area and
worldwide.
GET INVOLVED:
Though changes in the global climate are normal and occur over
millenia, anthropogenic - or human-induced - climate change is that which occurs
when people release "greenhouse gases" into the atmosphere. Learn how you
can reduce your personal and your organization's greenhouse gas emissions
here.
