Future Effects of Climate Change in the U.S.

I write occasionally about the title subject, but a highly respected body just released (in December) a publication. This is rich in information on the likely pain that our economy is likely to feel as a result of this human-caused modification to the world’s environment, it is likely to strongly impacts future laws that the federal government are likely to implement.

The Congressional Budget Office provides non-partisan analysis and reporting for the U.S. Congress. “The Risks of Climate Change to the United States in the 21st Century” was prepared at the request of the Chairman of the Senate Budget Committee. In keeping with the Congressional Budget Office’s mandate to provide objective, impartial analysis, the report makes no recommendations.
