Pacific RISA and East-West Center Sustained Climate Assessment Specialist Zena Grecni will testify on Thursday as an expert witness before the U.S. House Committee on Natural Resources: Democrats on the Insular Area Climate Change bill, which is aimed at reducing climate crisis impacts on U.S. territories and freely associated states. Zena’s testimony will draw from recent reports assembled by the EWC-led Pacific Islands Regional Climate Assessment (PIRCA), a regional collaborative effort to assess climate change indicators, impacts, and adaptive capacity of the Hawaiian archipelago and the U.S.-affiliated Pacific islands.<br>

The hearing will be streamed live on the committee's YouTube and Facebook sites. For more information, follow the link in our bio or visit: <a href="http://naturalresources.house.gov/hearings" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">naturalresources.house.gov/hearings</a><br>
