Four members of the ASA Advisory Committee for Climate Change Policy (ACCCP) went to Washington, DC, in early February to participate in the fifth annual Climate Science Day (CSD) on Capitol Hill. Sponsored and organized by the Climate Science Working Group—which is comprised of some 20 professional associations and other scientific organizations—the event brings scientists of many disciplines together to meet with members of Congress or their staff to discuss climate change and how it may affect a particular state or congressional district.
