Protecting Nature in Light of Climate Change
BC is already facing the realities of climate change in our lands and waters in the form of the devastating mountain pine beetle, the increasing number, size, and intensity of wildfires, as well as reduced salmon populations. Logging and other industrial development can further reduce the resilience of natural ecosystems to climate change. We must make legal and policy changes today to enable a science-based, legally designated and interconnected climate conservation network that will give our globally significant natural heritage a fighting chance in the face of climate change.
