NOAA’s  Pacific Islands Climate Storybook provides a detailed overview of climate change impacts, needs, and lessons learned across the Pacific. Through experiential knowledge, scientific data, and lessons learned from these community engagement processes, the Storybook highlights the major impact that climate change is having in communities across the Pacific and the strategies that are being used to confront this threat. Using stories and experiences Guam, Palau, American Samoa, and more, the Pacific Islands Climate Storybook illustrates best practices, key messages, and major needs of communities across the Pacific. One major need that is identified in the Storybook is that of improved climate services, especially climate early warning.
