Climate Change Impacts, Risks and Adaptation Statement

This is the first statement that the EPA has developed. As we gain knowledge and improve our processes in climate-related risk identification and management, our statements will mature. The EPA’s actions and responses to climate change will increase and adapt over time, based on science and current practices. Our statements will reflect the evolving Government policy and science on climate change.

To support our progress, this Statement has been peer reviewed by an appropriately qualified auditor, who has provided an assurance statement.
