PICS is prioritizing research to help British Columbia better understand and manage climate risks.
Our efforts focus on improving knowledge of the risks facing B.C., understanding how disasters unfold, and growing the evidence for effective solutions. Through targeted research and information, innovative tools, and accessible data, we support research and decision-making that strengthens climate resilience across the province.
Understanding B.C.’s climate risks
Inclusive knowledge and evidence to inform climate risk assessments in British Columbia
Innovative solutions to identify and adapt to climate risks
PICS supports research and engagement that helps Nations, communities, and municipalities create policies and take actions to be more resilient to major climate risks. Those risks can include extreme weather, floods, wildfire, heat emergencies, and resulting impacts like power outages.
This work generates insight and solutions that can reduce risk of disasters, transforming communities and ecosystems to better weather our changing climate.
