Climate change and its impact on society and the environment are some of the most pressing issues facing our nation and the world today. To address these challenges, the American Geophysical Union, one of the largest geoscience professional societies will collect ideas on potential ways to increase our understanding of processes and develop creative approaches to help combat and potentially mitigate the effects of climate change brought on by extreme weather events, changing weather patterns and landscapes, sea level rise, migration of species both on land and in the ocean, among others. Goals are to provide a prospectus of possible solutions and/or mitigations, with an emphasis on those subjects that would have a positive impact and be able to deliver impacts on on a time frame of 2 to 3 years. An aggressive program of outreach to geoscience community members, working groups, and geoscience disciplinary executive teams will be carried out. A significant component of these efforts will be on collecting ideas and thoughts from early career geoscience researchers and members of commonly marginalized and underrepresented groups. Broader impacts of the activity include development and delivery of potential, workable approaches to better understanding climate change with a framework of possible means of slowing or mitigating negative impacts on society and the environment. Input from marginalized communities and those that have not had a strong voice in decisions made by policy makers and that commonly suffer impacts from decisions on infrastructure and degradation of environmental conditions will be solicited and incorporated into the final report.The negative impacts of climate change on the environment and society are serious concerns for the environment as well as populations and governments. The American Geophysical Union (AGU) is a major professional society of over 60,000 geoscientists. It will use this vast array of geoscientists via its membership and others to contribute to ideating possible solutions to issues related to climate change. To do this AGU is holding a series of workshops, discussion groups, and surveys to identify and catalog ideas and solutions to climate related natural process issues where earth, atmosphere, ocean, polar, and geospace science plays a major role and for which deliverables with major impacts can be generated within two to three years. The AGU will accomplish this task by convening executive committees, working groups, and its professional society members to crowdsource ideas and possible avenues of attack and research to fill gaps in knowledge to allow potential solutions to move forward while still preserving precious earth environments. AGU is putting the generation of this information and its community’s input as a priority with the goal of producing a report to be made public and submitted to the National Science Foundation.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

气候变化及其对社会和环境的影响是当今我们国家和世界面临的最紧迫的问题。为了应对这些挑战，美国地球物理联盟是最大的地球科学专业社会之一，将收集有关我们对流程的理解的潜在方法的想法，并开发了创造性的方法，以帮助战斗和潜在地减轻极端天气事件带来的气候变化的影响，天气模式和景观，改变海平面，海平面上升，海洋上的迁移，在海洋上以及海洋中的海平面迁移，以及其他海洋。目标是提供可能的解决方案和/或缓解的招股说明书，重点是那些将产生积极影响并能够在2到3年的时间范围内产生影响的主题。将对地球科学社区成员，工作组和地球科学纪律执行团队进行激进的计划。这些努力的重要组成部分将是从早期的地球科学研究人员以及通常边缘化和代表性不足的群体的成员收集思想和思想。该活动的更广泛的影响包括开发和交付潜在的，可行的方法，以减缓或减轻对社会和环境的负面影响的框架，以更好地了解气候变化。边缘化社区以及那些在决策者做出的决策中没有强烈声音的投入，并且通常会遭受基础设施的决策和环境条件的定义产生影响，并将其纳入最终报告中。气候变化对环境和社会的负面影响是对环境以及人口和人口和人口和政府的严重关注。美国地球物理联盟（AGU）是一个主要的专业社会，拥有60,000多名地球科学家。它将通过其成员资格和其他大量的地球科学家使用这些大量的地球科学家，以确定与气候变化有关的问题的可能解决方案。为此，AGU举办了一系列的研讨会，讨论小组和调查，以识别和分类与气候相关的自然过程问题的思想和解决方案，在这些问题上，地球，大气，海洋，极地和地形科学扮演着重要角色，并且可以在两到三年内产生具有重大影响的可交付成果。 AGU将通过召集执行委员会，工作组及其专业社会成员来完成这项任务，以众包思想以及可能的攻击和研究机会，以填补知识的空白，以允许潜在的解决方案前进，同时仍然保留宝贵的地球环境。 AGU将这些信息及其社区的投入作为优先事项，目的是制定公开报告并提交给国家科学基金会。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响标准来评估通过评估来诚实地支持支持。
