What's At Stake:

How Global Warming Threatens the Buckeye State

Executive Summary

Global warming poses a serious threat to the future of Ohio's environment and economy, and the health and welfare of its citizens. Unchecked, global warming could shift Lake Erie's shoreline, deplete fishing stocks, cut forest cover, threaten many economically important species of plants and animals, cause dangerous flooding, and worsen health problems many Ohioans already face. What's At Stake details Ohio's global warming problems and describes policy solutions to help the state avoid the worst impacts of climate change. (December 2008)
