Coping With Climate

Developing nations will bear the brunt of global warming. Public-private partnerships can help.

Even if the world were to take steps to quickly and dramatically limit greenhouse-gas emissions, the levels already in the atmosphere will continue to alter our climate in the coming decades.

Dealing with this problem will require broad partnerships between public, private and nonprofit organizations.
