The
Impact of Climate Change on Canada
For Canadians the increase in temperatures globally
will be felt mostly with increased stress in very hot weather events,
more droughts, floods, wildfires and severe storms. As everywhere there
will be more stress on water sources, the wildlife and fish stocks of
Canada.
The great
boreal forest could be reduced substantially. In addition to direct effects
on growth, the likelihood of increased forest fire frequency and pest
outbreaks could cause a huge decrease in the forest which will have other
knock-on effects.
Areas of
the lower Fraser delta which are already sinking will be further impacted
by the rising sea levels caused by climate change.
In the Canadian
Arctic global warming will result in major losses of habitat and existing
species of wildlife. To read more on these effects Canadian
