The Report
Confronting Climate Change in the Great Lakes Region: Impacts on Our Communities and Ecosystems is a comprehensive report released by the Union of Concerned Scientists and the Ecological Society of America, and written by leading university and government scientists in the Great Lakes region. This report examines the potential impacts of climate change upon the various ecosystems of this diverse and rich region. The report is designed to raise awareness of climate change and broaden understanding of its potential impacts and solutions. It is written in a readily accessible style for the general public, state and national policymakers, and business leaders. If you would like to be kept informed of our activities in the region, fill out our Great Lakes notification form and we will keep you posted. Below, you can download pdf copies of the report, state/provincial-specific summaries, and climate change solution booklets. Printed versions of these materials can be ordered from the UCS publications department.
