The Climate Change Science Program (CCSP), which coordinates many agencies' activities, also reports on science funding. The Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) Climate Leaders and the Department of Energy's (DOE's) Climate VISION programs aim to reduce such emissions through voluntary industry efforts. This testimony is based on GAO's August 2005 report Climate Change: Federal Reports on Climate Change Funding Should Be Clearer and More Complete (GAO-05-461) and its April 2006 report Climate Change: EPA and DOE Should Do More to Encourage Progress Under Two Voluntary Programs (GAO-06-97), which addressed (1) reported changes in federal climate change funding and (2) the status and progress of two federal voluntary climate programs. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-06-1126T/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-06-1126T.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-06-1126T/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-06-1126T.pdf GAO-06-1126T https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-06-1126T Testimony GAO-06-1126T; Climate Change: Federal Agencies Should Do More to Make Funding Reports Clearer and Encourage Progress on Two Voluntary Programs; Climate statistics Comparative analysis Data collection Environmental monitoring Federal funds Financial analysis Funds management Program evaluation Regulatory agencies Reporting requirements Research programs Tax expenditures Voluntary compliance Climate Change Science Program DOE Climate VISION Program Volume 104 Page 3096 104 Stat. 3096 Public Law 104-66
