The recently released *5th National Climate Assessment (NCA5*)
<https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.strangertickets.com%2Fevents%2F146452903%2Fprogress-on-climate-in-the-pacific-nw&sa=D&ust=1701641160000000&usg=AOvVaw03ubyCEoIIm-yG6nKvPTWy>
provided the updates on the latest science on climate risks, impacts, and
action. How does this latest scientific report impact climate policy in the
Pacific Northwest and beyond?

To find out, the CCA is bringing experts responsible for  writing some
portions of the *NCA5 *who will tell the story of these periodic reports
and how the information will be put to use for enhanced policy.  The panel
will include NCA authors across multiple chapters, all are based in
Washington state, including Michael Chang from Cascadia Consulting Group
(Lead Author, Northwest chapter), Melissa Schutten from Na’ah Illahee Fund
(Author, Social Systems and Justice chapter), Lisa Crozier from NOAA’s
Northwest Fisheries Science Center (Author, Northwest chapter), Nathalie
Voisin (Author, Energy chapter), among others. Learn how these scientific
reports are produced and how they support achieving the goal of "Using
Sound Science to Manage Climate Impacts". [President's Climate Action Plan
2014]

Local climate action advocates will also be there to answer questions about
how to get involved and to advocate for climate action and community
involvement.  There will be plenty of time for Q&A and networking under the
canopy warmed by the beer garden's heaters.  Bring questions to ask the
experts and learn some of the highlights of what progress has been made in
our backyards.
