126	259.5	Index	6.3.6	6.0	EOH	Environmental & Occupational Health	19.0	PEI	Physical Environment and Infrastructure	Actions taken to reduce health hazards in the physical environment, including elements of the natural and built environment.	M334	State has a climate change adaptation plan	Climate change is already increasing global temperatures, leading to rising sea levels and more frequent and intense extreme weather events. These changes could affect coastlines, water supplies, human health, ecosystems, and more. Each community will be affected differently, so formal planning and concrete actions are needed to address these changes at both the state and local level. States and municipalities are recognizing the importance of preemptive action to address their vulnerabilities to climate change impacts. Many states have begun to address adaptation concerns either within broader climate action plans or through separate efforts.	C2ES	Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES), State and Local Climate Adaptation	2014—2018	The measure does not evaluate the quality or comprehensiveness of the plan, or the degree to which the plan is implemented.
