Department of State's 2021 Federal Climate Adaptation Plan

The Department of State's 2021 Federal Climate Adaptation Plan is a national cross-sectoral action plan of the United States. Its main objectives are to utilize mobility, domestic telework, and remote access to systems and services to enable continuity of operations, reduced risk to personnel, and support mission delivery; include climate hazards in emergency planning; screen facilities for climate hazards to identify which to prioritize for further assessment and intervention; identify and reduce climate vulnerabilities in the Department’s mission-critical supply chain, ensure continuous operations during emergencies, and develop guidance and strategies for programs to integrate sustainable procurement; and use eco-diplomacy platforms to share best practices, establish joint projects with host nations to improve resilience, and demonstrate U.S. climate leadership.
