The 2017 Southwest Tribal Climate Change Summit, held on September 19-21, 2017, provided environmental professionals from regional tribes, and other organizations an opportunity to meet and discuss strategies to respond to current policies, regulatory initiatives, and technical topics in responding to climate change impacts.
To recap the successful event, we created an interactive article or Story Map, which can be viewed here on your desktop or mobile device.
