The Climate Action Tracker is the primary reporting and tracking tool for the Forest Service on climate change actions. The information from the tracker is used to inform agency operations and investments toward becoming a 100 percent climate positive agency. Progress in the tracker is measured across four dimensions: Serving People, Organizational Capacity, Natural Resources Stewardship, and Operations and Infrastructure. Each dimension has a broader goal supported by several specific strategic objectives.

2023 Progress Report

Fiscal Year 2023 marks the second year of reporting on agency progress using the Climate Action Tracker. The 2023 Executive Summary (PDF, 940 KB) highlights agency progress across the four tracker dimensions and 13 strategic objectives. The Climate Action Tracker also includes a summary of Regional Climate Action Plans that were developed by each Forest Service region in 2023. A full report will be available later this spring.
