In 2010, CSIS's entire Asia team produced a signature study for the MacArthur Foundation looking at new ways of addressing nontraditional security threats in the region as a pathway to increase regional cooperation. The project had a specific focus on energy security, climate change, and humanitarian crisis. All have the potential to shape Asia's politics and growth in the coming century. Two widely distributed reports grew out of this study, including Green Dragons: The Politics of Climate Change in Asia. The project has helped to influence how people in America and Asia think about emerging architecture in a time of shifting power relations in Asia and between Asia and the United States.
