This document summarizes key information from Sean D. Moriarty, Esq., Chief Advisor for Regulatory Affairs at the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, on climate change challenges facing New Jersey and two executive orders signed by the governor to address these issues. It notes that sea levels are expected to rise significantly in New Jersey by 2100 and beyond, and that Executive Order 89 establishes a statewide climate change resilience strategy while Executive Order 100 directs regulatory reforms to mitigate and adapt to climate change through reducing carbon emissions and incorporating climate risks into land use regulations. Stakeholders are invited to provide comments on New Jersey's climate protection efforts.

Thanks to all.
Climate change is any change in climate which is attributed directly or indirectly to human activity and that alters the composition of the global atmosphere (United Nations 1992). Climate change is caused by the increment of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere through the burning of fossil fuels and land use (United Nations 1992). This causes increased radiation of infrared rays back to the earth hence temperature increases through the greenhouse gas effect.
Climate change worldwide is affecting biophysical and social systems (Maitima. J. et al 2009). The spatial extent and intensity of these effects vary geographically from one place to another depending on the location in the global atmospheric systems, regional settings, land cover, land use patterns, topography and weather patterns (Maitima. J. et al 2009). These effects have become a major concern for most countries of the world due to their longterm implications and adverse effects on development activities with developing and underdeveloped nations being the most affected (ECOLAO 2012) Indigenous people are most vulnerable to impacts of climate change due to their high reliance on climate sensitive natural resources, inhabitation of fragile ecosystems and social, economic plus political marginalization (ECOLAO 2012).
The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is an international environmental treaty (also known as a multilateral environmental agreement) that was opened for signature at the Earth Summit held in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 and came into force in 1994.
The ultimate objective of the Convention is to “stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that will prevent dangerous human interference with the climate system." It states that "such a level should be achieved within a time-frame sufficient to allow ecosystems to adapt naturally to climate change, to ensure that food production is not threatened, and to enable economic development to proceed in a sustainable manner.“ 194 countries signed the UNFCCC showing near universal agreement that there is a problem and that action is required against climate change.

Regulatory Updates
2. • The single biggest environmental challenge that we face
not only here in New Jersey but around the globe
• New Jersey is ground zero for rising sea levels, increasing
storms and flooding, and rising heat levels. Sea levels
and heat levels are rising faster in New Jersey than in
most of the country.
• The effects of climate change present real threats to our
economy and our way of life, as well as to our
environment and public health.
• Requires broad, effective and coordinated response -
now

3. • Likely Sea Level Rise by Year:
• 2050: 2 feet
• 2070: up to 3 feet
• 2100: up to 5 feet
• 2150: up to 8 feet
• Worst case scenarios show potential for 14-20 feet
by 2150.
• Planning challenge: criticality, useful life/lifespan,
vulnerability, risk tolerance
Sea Level Rise
