Societies submit comments on agriculture, research to Climate Crisis Committee

The House Select Committee on the Climate Crisis released in September a “request for information” soliciting input from stakeholders on a broad range of issues related to climate change and potential policy solutions. The select committee aims to submit legislative recommendations to Congress in March of 2020 informed by the input from the RFI.

The ASA, CSSA, and SSSA Science Policy Office surveyed Society members, seeking their input and suggestions to help shape the comments that the Societies submitted to the Select Committee. See the full comments here.

ASA, CSSA, and SSSA also submitted comments as a part of a multi-Society climate science coalition. See the coalition comments here.
