If heat-trapping emissions are not significantly curtailed, global warming will substantially change critical aspects of the
Northeast's character and economy, according to a new report by the Northeast Climate Impacts Assessment (NECIA), a
two-year collaboration between the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) and a team of more than 50 scientists and
economists. Near-term choices about energy, transportation, and land-use will largely determine the extent and severity of
climate change. [Source: Union of Concerned Scientists]
