Global warming
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6206548
The earth seems to be getting warmer, but scientists are unsure about the rate and extent of this trend. GAO found that the administration has not established a national policy, defined agency role and interagency relationships, or provided adequate guidance to agencies on how to address the global warming issue. This report states that U.S. administration policy so far has concentrated on doing the scientific research needed to reduce any uncertainty about the timing and threat of global warming. The United States has also focused on assuming a leading international role in formulating policy responses aimed at limiting or adapting to world climate change.
