CBC News — What the new IPCC report says climate change could — and is — costing Canadians
CBC News discusses climate change impacts across four important categories including: wildfires, cities/floods, food production and indigenous health.
The C1W team needs a diverse set of partners to help us quantify second order impacts to food production systems, indigenous health, forest health/wildfires and the housing market. If you are interested in collaborating with the C1W team to answer these questions don’t hesitate to contact us (info@aquanty.com)!
2022 Regional-Scale Groundwater Geoscience in Southern Ontario:
