Science and Technology: Climate Change
EPA researchers are working to better understand climate change and how the effects will vary by region and over time, and how societies and the earth's environment will adapt to or cope with climate change. EPA's climate change research is focusing on those areas where EPA has the most to offer assessments of the consequences of climate change on air quality, water quality, human health and ecosystem health.
