All past State of Environment and State of Forests Reports for British Columbia are available below in PDF format. In 2012 the Province of British Columbia moved to a web based, iterative approach to publishing indicators and environmental data for reporting on the state of environment in B.C.
Indicators (2012 onward)
This is a list of all indicators published online since Environmental Reporting BC was launched in 2012. As indicators for Air, Climate Change, Land & Forests, Plants & Animals, Sustainability, and Water are updated, previous versions are archived and available in PDF format below.
