Climate Change ResourcesA changing climate presents challenges for many BC communities. The projected impacts include more frequent and intense storms, precipitation and flooding, as well as more periods of extreme heat, dryness and drought, and changes in ecological systems. Leaders in government and other spheres of responsibility can play an important role in reducing the greenhouse gas emissions that drive climate change and in helping communities prepare for greater resilience. The Fraser Basin Council is here to help. BC Climate Action Toolkit
The BC Climate Action Toolkit is a first-stop website that offers BC communities news, events, resources and tools to support their work in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The site is supported through a partnership between the joint Provincial-UBCM Green Communities Committee and the Fraser Basin Council. Make a visit and follow on social media.
ReTooling for Climate ChangeTo minimize the impacts and disruptions of a changing climate, there are opportunities for community leaders to plan for low carbon climate resilience, by making both climate change mitigation and adaptation integral to their strategies, plans and policies. The ReTooling for Climate Change website helps communities build resilience to the impacts of a changing climate. Visit the site for adaptation news, events, case studies, reports, guides, tools, policies and plans and videos. The resource library is packed ─ take a look!
