WASHINGTON , June 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- NASA joined more than 20 federal agencies in releasing its updated Climate Adaptation Plan Thursday, helping expand the Biden-Harris Administration's efforts to make federal operations increasingly resilient to the impacts of climate change for the benefit of all. The updated plans advance the administration's National Climate Resilience Framework , which helps align climate resilience investments across the public and private sectors through common principles and opportunities. "Thanks to the leadership of the Biden-Harris Administration, we are strengthening climate resilience to ensure humanity is well-prepared for the effects of climate change," said NASA Administrator Bill Nelson .
"NASA's decades of Earth observation are key to building climate resiliency and sustainability across the country and the world." NASA serves as a global leader in Earth science, providing researchers with crucial data from its satellites and other assets, as well as other observations and research on the climate system. The agency also works to apply that knowledge and inform the public about climate change.
NASA will continue to prioritize these efforts and maintain an open information policy that makes its science data, software, and research freely available to all. Climate variability and change also have potential impacts on NASA's ability to fulfill its mission, requiring proactive planning and action from the agency. To e.
