Climate AlertA principal vehicle for vaulting climate change to policy maker attention in the U.S. and abroad, the Institute's quarterly newsletter, Climate Alert is now in its fourteenth year. During this time Climate Alert has emerged as the best source for policy makers of likely impacts of climate change on developing countries. Several Climate Alert special reports have generated wide public attention. These include an analysis of climate and energy trends in China, a study of the vulnerability of the insurance industry in the face of climate change, and an assessment of the growth of electric cars and other zero emission vehicles, summaries of national and regional studies of climate change implications, and reports of key policy developments concerning international developments on climate change and green energy. Climate Alert also includes guest columns from some of the most distinguished and world-renowned experts in the energy, environmental and public policy arena. Environmental Exodus: An Emergent Crisis in the Global ArenaDr. Norman Myers and Jennifer Kent, June 1995, pp. Climate Change in AsiaThe results of the eight-country study funded by the Asian Development Bank and coordinated by the Climate Institute with a team of sixty experts can be obtained on this website. The entire volume consists of eight individual country studies of vulnerability to climate change and potential response options in Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Philippines, Sri Lanka and Viet Nam; and an executive summary and a thematic overview.
