Homeland Security Climate Change Coordination Act establishes a council within DHS to manage climate change impacts.
The Homeland Security Climate Change Coordination Act amends the Homeland Security Act of 2002 to create a council within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). This council will coordinate efforts to identify, address, and mitigate the cross-functional impacts of global climate change on DHS programs, operations, missions, assets, and personnel. The council will develop risk-based climate change strategies and frameworks, recommend organizational and resource realignments, and oversee the implementation of departmental actions related to climate change.
