National Park Service Climate Change Response Strategy
This document is the 2023 update to the National Park Service's Climate Change Response Strategy, serving as a high-level blueprint to guide the agency's efforts in addressing the climate crisis and protecting resources for future generations. The strategy is built upon four cornerstones of action: Understand, Adapt, Mitigate, and Communicate. It aims to mainstream climate-informed practices across all NPS operations, protect natural and cultural resources, facilities, park operations, visitor experience, and human health, and reduce operational greenhouse gas emissions towards a net-zero future.
