\nEarth’s changing climate is leading us into a new regim
 e of impacts that pose unique
\nchallenges and decisions to society. A
 s environmental scientists pursue fundamental understanding of atmosph
 eric processes\, they increase their effectiveness by being aware of h
 ow their research connects to these decisions. The best decisions requ
 ire us to frame and describe our understanding in a manner relevant fo
 r the problems at hand and\, above all\, to communicate it effectively
  to stakeholders and decision makers. In this presentation\, I will pr
 esent guiding principles and a diverse set of examples\, related to th
 e Montreal Protocol\, global aviation\, climate intervention\, and the
  National Climate Assessment\, with
\nthe hope of increasing awareness
  of environmental science-based decision making and providing encourag
 ement for the challenges ahead.<br>
