USDA Climate Change Adaptation Plan

The Plan describes how USDA is integrating climate adaptation into its mission, programs, and operations. An update to its 2014 Adaptation Plan, this Plan identifies key vulnerabilities to the effects of climate change on USDA's mission and establishes a framework for addressing these impacts across the Department. The Climate Adaptation and Resilience Action Plan: 2022 Progress Report provides an update on USDA's adaptation efforts, illustrative examples of cross-cutting adaptation actions, and responds to specific priority issues, such as environmental justice, tribal engagement, and operational and financial climate risk.
