The project is part of the wider initiative, the BC Regional Adaptation Collaborative (RAC) to help communities, governments and other organizations adapt to climate change. The RAC Program enables Canadians to be better prepared to adapt to changes in the climate by providing them with adaptation knowledge, tools, networks and other resources. The Program recognizes that making adaptation-focused decisions now will help ensure that our economy, communities and natural resources sectors are better prepared for climate change impacts in the future.

Regional Workshops

The print and web versions of the guide were launched and distributed through a series of regional workshops throughout BC that were funded the Fraser Salmon and Watersheds Program, Environment Canada and the Real Estate Foundation of BC.
