Climate change impact - NJ

This report goes into the details of the impacts that climate change will have, specifically for New Jersey. It was prepared by the University of Maryland Division of Research Center for Integrative Environmental Research. There are state reports for Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Nevada and Ohio as well at that site.

The time frames are in question, and tend to be getting shorter rather than longer, but the impacts are quite real and useful for planning purposes. As we used to say at AT&T, expect success, but plan for failure. There's no downside to taking a negative impact into consideration - but there is a real downside for failing to do so.
