American Sāmoa Climate Forum Report

Climate change profoundly affects global agriculture, posing food security threats via extreme weather, temperature shifts, and rainfall variations. In the Pacific Islands, additional challenges like sea-level rise and ecosystem degradation exacerbate these issues. The American Samoa Extension Climate Forum, conducted on June 20-21, 2018, sought to address these concerns by engaging stakeholders in discussions about sustainable agriculture, climate adaptation, and food security.
