Working with the Argonne National Laboratory and the Midwest Consortium of International Security Studies, the Academy co-sponsored two conferences on global climate change: one focused on international security issues and the other focused on social and economic consequences. Among the topics discussed were the economic effects of global warming and of policies designed to reduce the rate of carbon dioxide emission; government and public perceptions of the problem; and institutional capacity for dealing with international problems likely to have severe local impacts.
