Preparing for Climate Change

Communities across British Columbia are already experiencing the effects of human-induced climate change. But climate change impacts like sea-level rise, increasing storm intensity and water scarcity (or abundance) don't affect every region of the province in the same way. There is a real need to understand the nature of climate change in each region so that those involved in community planning and development are better equipped to adapt their plans to meet these changing conditions.

This site can be used to help you understand:

how climate will change in your region
how your region could be impacted
what actions you can take to prepare for climate change

Plan2Adapt features a tool designed to help you assess climate change in your region through the generation of high-resolution maps, graphs and data tables based on a standard set of climate model projections. In addition to viewing this information online, you can download these data for further analysis, reporting and presentation.
