Thanks for posting the links (I should have thought to do so before), but most of those docs are the simply the DR's GHG emission inventories and First National Communication to the secretariat of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The latter was produced & released in 2003 under the prior Administration, so I am not sure how much the Fernandez Administration is sticking to it. If I recall (it's been a year or two since I read it), it does a decent job of discussing possible vulnerabilities but is not very deep in discussing responses in either adaptation or mitigation. The document on adaptation to sequia I confess I have not yet read. Any goodies there?

Also, anyone have any word on when the DR is going to submit their Second Communication? That would provide more clues to the current government thinking. Yeah, I know, only Mexico and Uruguay have already released their Second, but Colombia supposedly is to do so shortly. I would hope that the Ministerio get moving on it rather than lag everyone else as the DR did with the first Communication...
