Scientists, researchers and environmental experts from across the state convened at Emory last week to draft the �Georgia Climate Research Roadmap� � a set of targeted research questions that could help Georgia better understand and address one of the century�s defining challenges.

The goal of the May 22-23 gathering was to formulate �Georgia�s Top 40,� key climate research questions that could eventually aid decision-making and planning for Georgia policymakers, scientists, communities and service organizations.

An initiative of the Georgia Climate Project, the roadmap was a response to the fact that communities across Georgia are already exploring strategies to address the impact of climate change, says Daniel Rochberg, chief strategy officer for the Climate@Emory initiative and an instructor in the Rollins School of Public Health and Emory College of Arts and Sciences, where he focuses on climate change and sustainable development.

Some Georgia communities are actively assessing vulnerabilities and strategies to build resilience to potential climate change impact, while others are developing technologies and policies to begin reducing emissions, according to Rochberg, who has also worked for the U.S. State Department as special assistant to the lead U.S. climate negotiators under presidents Bush and Obama.

�To inform this work, decision-makers at all levels need credible and relevant information from across the natural, applied and social sciences,� says Murray Rudd, an associate professor in Emory�s Department of Environmental Sciences and member of the climate research roadmap steering committee. �The Georgia Climate Research Roadmap seeks to fulfill this need by identifying the key research questions that, if answered, can lay the groundwork for the state and its residents to take effective, science-based climate action,� he says.
