Global Warming and the Free State

Chapter 2: Global Warming and the Free StateGlobal Warming and the Free State, which is Chapter 2 of the just released Maryland Commission on Climate Change's Climate Action Plan, has been printed as a stand-alone report. It is an assessment of the likely consequences of the changing global climate for Maryland's agricultural industry, forestry and fishery resources, freshwater supply, aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, and human health. IAN staff worked with Don Boesch, President of the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science, to produce this chapter, along with the Scientific and Technical Working Group of the Maryland Commission on Climate Change.
