City of Seattle, WA: Preparing for a Changing Climate
While we must accelerate our efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, historic emissions have and will continue to impact the global climate. Additionally, slow progress in reducing future emissions is increasing the likelihood that communities will face significant climate change impacts. These changes will exacerbate the impacts communities are already experiencing. The most significant changes projected for the Northwest include changes in temperature, precipitation, sea level, and ocean acidification. Flooding, heat waves, and extreme high tides are not new challenges in Seattle and we have strategies for dealing with them. However, climate change will shift the frequency, intensity, magnitude, and timing of these events.
