The Columbia Basin-Boundary region is already experiencing a climate that’s different from 50 years ago. Even with substantial cuts to greenhouse gas emissions, scientists expect our climate to continue changing over the coming decades. From ecosystems, communities, and infrastructure, to our way of life—everything will be affected.
Communities across the region and around the world are demonstrating that it’s possible to adapt, to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and continue to thrive. Explore this website to learn more about the changes we’re expecting, and what we can do about them.
