 The United States Global Change Research Program has released a major report.

The report, which focuses on national and regional impacts of global climate change, has been 19 years in the making. More than a dozen federal agencies were involved in the accumulation of data, the making of graphics and the writing of articles.

If you would like to read the report for yourself, here is the link to the homepage www.globalchange.gov. All of us here in the NBC4 weather office will be taking some time to read through this report ourselves, and we hope you will do the same. Weather and climate affect everyone, and the more we know about the impacts we are making on our world, the more likely we are to try and make a difference.
