The Forest Service Climate Change Performance Scorecard
Each national forest and grassland is expected to do seven of the following by 2015:
1. Provide all employees with education on climate change
2. Assign at least one employee as a point person for climate change issues
3. Incorporate climate change into guidance, training, and plans of work
4. Integrate science and forest management practices through new and existing partnerships
5. Incorporate climate change into new and existing external partnerships
6. Assess the vulnerability of ecosystems and human communities to climate change
7. Develop climate change adaptation strategies for vulnerable resources
8. Monitor climate change impacts and the effectiveness of climate change strategies
9. Assess carbon stocks and flows and develop carbon management strategies
10. Set targets to reduce the environmental footprint from their operations
