Sea Level Rise and Flooding

Helping communities adapt to changing weather and water levels.

Climate change is raising the threat of coastal and inland flooding across much of British Columbia. Without taking action to reduce risks, sea level rise and weather extremes will increasingly threaten critical infrastructure, ecosystems, and livelihoods across the province.

The Pacific Institute for Climate Solutions supports holistic flood and sea level rise protections and adaptations in B.C. PICS-funded analysis, partnerships, and knowledge sharing aims to support policies and actions that help communities adapt and protect ecosystems in the changing climate.
