National Climate Change Action by the Government of Israel – State Audit Reports
The global climate crisis poses significant threats including water scarcity, extreme weather events, and impacts on agriculture, food security and human health. Israel’s geographical location magnifies these risks as being a ‘Hot Spot’. Various governmental bodies, such as the Ministries of Finance, Environmental Protection, Energy, Transportation, Economy, Agriculture, Defense, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), and the Planning Administration within the Ministry of Interior, have different responsibilities for addressing climate change.
