USGCRP’s Social Sciences Coordinating Committee Webinar Series: Climate, Food, & Culture Session 3: Putting Culture into Practice: The role of Social Science in Building Resilient and Adaptive Food Systems This webinar builds upon discussion from the previous two webinars to specifically consider how culture informs resilient and adaptive food systems in the face of complex disasters. The discussions will draw from the most critical areas of inquiry, and explore the current and future landscape of practical solution-building within these culturally-grounded, resilient, adaptive food systems.

USGCRP’s Social Sciences Coordinating Committee Webinar Series: Climate, Food, & Culture Session 2: Sustainable & Just Fisheries: Rethinking Climate Resilient Food Systems This webinar will explore how culture and climate variability and change are shaping the role of Fisheries in a sustainable and equitable U.S. food system. It will consider lessons learned from COVID-19 in recreating a just food system that is also climate resilient.

USGCRP’s Social Sciences Coordinating Committee Webinar Series, Climate, Food, & Culture Session 1: Socio-Cultural Approaches to Climate, Food, & Agricultural Systems This webinar will highlight the socio-cultural relationships and processes that maintain and adapt land-based food systems in the wake of climate change. It will also explore the ways climate and other disasters, including COVID-19, compound to affect the resilience of these relationships and related local economies.

Hosted by the National Park Service In late 2018, the U.S. Global Change Research Program released Volume II off the Fourth National Climate Assessment (NCA4), providing the most current information on the implications of climate change across 10 regions of the United States. But what does it mean for the National Park System? This roundtable discussion focuses squarely on parks in the U.S. Caribbean region of the NCA4. Featuring: Ernesto Diaz Matt Patterson David Reidmiller Janet Cakir

Hosted by NOAA in collaboration with USGCRP The Nation’s authoritative assessment of climate impacts, the Fourth National Climate Assessment Vol. II: Impacts, Risks, and Adaptation in the United States (NCA4 Vol. II) was released in November 2018. This presentation will address the potential for reduction or avoidance of future risk through adaptation efforts and emissions mitigation. Featuring: Roger Pulwarty, NOAA Jeremy Martinich, EPA

Hosted by NOAA in collaboration with USGCRP New observations and new research have increased our understanding of past, current, and future climate change. The Fourth National Climate Assessment confirms prior assessments in concluding that the climate on our planet, including the United States, is changing, and changing rapidly. Observational evidence for a changing climate abounds, from the top of the atmosphere to the depths of the oceans. Documented changes include surface, atmospheric, and oceanic temperatures; melting glaciers; disappearing snow cover; shrinking sea ice; and rising sea...

Hosted by NOAA in collaboration with USGCRP The Nation’s authoritative assessment of climate impacts, the Fourth National Climate Assessment Vol. II: Impacts, Risks, and Adaptation in the United States (NCA4 Vol. II) was released in November 2018. This presentation will address two new areas of the assessment--climate effects on U.S. international interests and interactions between sectors, multiple stressors, and the science of complex systems.
