Examples of Action

We can take meaningful action now to address the impacts of climate change on our natural resources. Explore case studies and climate amplifier vignettes below to see what other have done to take action.

Case Studies

Detailed studies that demonstrate how managers faced novel interactions, responded to current and future threats, and adapted their management actions to mitigate threats in the face of climate change.

• National Park Service Scenario Planning
• Sparta Mountain Wildlife Management Area: Terrestrial Wildlife Adaptation Menu
• Wraco Dam Failure and Future-Oriented Infrastructure Regional
• Spongy Moth Outbreak After Drought 

Climate Amplifier Vignettes

Identify a problem statement and explain how the climate impact amplifies the threat, and list proposed solutions.

• The effect of housing and urban areas amplified by hydrology/precipitation
• The effect of renewable energy amplified by habitat change
• The effect of invasive or non-native species amplified by changing temperature regimes
