SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

In accordance with the UNFCCC’s 

reporting requirements as specified in 

Articles 4.2 and 12, and following 

reporting guidelines developed (and 

adopted by the UNFCCC COP at its first 

session), the United States prepared the 

first U.S. Climate Action Report (CAR) 

and submitted it to the UNFCCC 

Secretariat in October 1994. 

At the eighth COP in 2002, in 

Decision 4/CP.8 the Parties requested 

that Parties included in Annex I to the 

convention submit to the secretariat a 

fourth national communication (see 

FCCC/CP/2002/7/Add.1). This 

document is available on the Internet at 

http://unfccc.int/resource/docs/cop8/ 

07a01.pdf#page=12. 

The Fourth United States Climate 

Action Report (CAR) 

The draft fourth CAR provides an 

update on key activities conducted by 

the U.S. since the third CAR, an 

inventory of U.S. greenhouse gas 

emissions and sinks, an estimate of the 

effects of mitigation measures and 

policies on future emissions levels, and 

a description of U.S. leadership and 

involvement in international programs, 

including associated contributions and 

funding efforts. 

In addition, the text discusses U.S. 

national circumstances that affect U.S. 

vulnerability and responses to climate 

change. Finally, the CAR presents 

information on the U.S. Climate Change 

Science Program, the U.S. Climate 

Change Technology Program, our efforts 

in systematic observations, including 

the U.S. Integrated Earth Observation 

System, and our education, training and 

outreach efforts.
