The world can't afford to stall on confronting climate change, says a resolution passed last week by the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics, and scientists shouldn't let it. The 58-nation scientific umbrella organization, which includes seven international bodies, passed the nine-point resolution focusing on the inevitable consequences of warming and urging nations to "promote adaptation." In addition to pushing for more climate-monitoring research funds, the union's members promise more "outreach," which its outgoing president Michael MacCracken says includes getting the word out about impending warming-related floods or droughts.
