Webinar: The Status of Tribes and Climate Change Report May 10, 2023 with Nikki Cooley, Co-Director of the Institute for Tribal Environmental Professionals and Co-Manager of the Institute's Tribal Climate Change Program. This report was specifically developed to honor the resilience of Tribes across the country as they face increasing climate impacts. To develop this document, the Institute for Tribal Environmental Professionals Tribes and Climate Change team convened a group of more than 90 authors, including those from Tribal Nations, federal agencies, Tribal organizations, academic institutions, and non-profits. Each chapter of the report is preceded by narratives that features voices from Tribes who speak about the climate impacts they are facing and their actions to address the impacts on their lands and culture. Ms. Cooley will give an overview of the report, making sure to focus on portions that may be especially relevant to the Northeast. Hosted by the Northeast Climate Adaptation Science Center.
