Description
Our climate is changing and the impacts are already being felt across Canada. Impacts ranging from shifting precipitation patterns to extreme heat events threaten the well-being of Canadians and will continue to do so at an increasing rate, even as the international community begins, hopefully, to undertake the crucial work of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, or mitigation. Climate projections indicate that all Canadians will experience the impacts of climate change, at least to some degree, and almost all sectors of our economy will be affected by climate change; indeed, some are already feeling the brunt of pressures that will only worsen as time goes by. Because of these wide-ranging impacts on Canadians, climate change will have implications for many areas of social policy; it is therefore crucial that we prepare the policy arena for the problems climate change will cause, with or without mitigation. This approach is known as adaptation.
