DescriptionThe California Natural Resources Agency (CNRA) has taken the lead in developing this adaptation strategy, working through the Climate Action Team (CAT). Seven sector-specific working groups led by 12 state agencies, boards and commissions, and numerous stakeholders were convened for this effort. The strategy proposes a comprehensive set of recommendations designed to inform and guide California decision makers as they begin to develop policies that will protect the state, its residents and its resources from a range of climate change impacts. Following a 45-day public comment period since its release as a Discussion Draft in August 2009, the CNRA and sector working groups have revised the strategy incorporating public stakeholder input. All public comments can be seen on the adaptation Web site at www.climatechange.ca.gov. Not all material has been incorporated at this time, but will potentially be added later to accommodate additional information and expand upon as strategies are implemented and more organizations and processes become involved. This document will be updated approximately every two years to incorporate progress in strategies and changing climate science.
