Tools and data
- ReTooling for Climate Change
Adaptation tools and resources for B.C. local governments, First Nations and the natural resource sectors to prepare for the impacts of climate change - Plan2Adapt
Tool for generating maps, plots, and data describing projected future climate conditions for regions throughout British Columbia - PCIC data portal
Provides access to B.C. station data, high-resolution climatology and downscaled climate scenarios data collected by the Pacific Climate Impacts Consortium - BC Climate Action Toolkit
Toolkit to inspire action in B.C.'s diverse local governments to advance emission reductions and adaptation planning - Environmental Reporting BC - Climate Change Indicators
Information on indicators including changes in river flow, sea level, temperature, precipitation and more.
Climate research and service organizations
- Pacific Climate Impacts Consortium (PCIC)
A regional climate service provider that conducts quantitative studies on the impacts of climate change and climate variability in the Pacific and Yukon region. Results from this work provide regional interest holders with the information needed to develop plans for reducing the risks associated with climate change. - Pacific Institute for Climate Solutions
Supporting solutions-oriented research to assist British Columbia with meeting the climate change challenge. Current initiatives include five major projects dealing with transportation, energy efficiency, forest carbon management, natural gas, and low carbon pathways. - Adaptation Learning Network
Led by the ResiliencebyDesign Lab at Royal Roads University, the network is helping professionals in British Columbia who work at the front line of climate adaptation integrate adaptation competencies into their professional practice, through education, training and networking. - The Fraser Basin Council
Managing the BC Regional Adaptation Collaborative (RAC) —21 collaborative projects across the province supporting decision-making on water allocation and use, forest and watershed management, flood protection and floodplain management and community planning.
Videos and video series
- BC Adapts Video Series
Video series illustrating actions B.C. communities are taking to adapt to the impacts of climate change - Climate Insights: bite size - YouTube
Series of 13 short videos that introduce the causes of climate change, how society can adapt, and the options for reducing emissions​
