A useful resource for communities in B.C. as they consider planning for flooding in a more integrated way.

A printable extreme heat fact sheet that breaks down the science, risks, and what communities need to do to prepare.

A printable wildfire factsheet that breaks down the science, the risks, and what communities can do to prepare.

This report summarizes the findings from the 2025 Western Flood Mapping Conference (WFMC).

The Pacific Institute for Climate Solutions spent a year working with top researchers and practitioners across the province to outline how research and evidence can better inform risk assessments. Our work is detailed in this report.

A collaborative plan that seeks accessible, feasible and affordable solutions that will accelerate the transition to heat-pumps in low-rise MURBs.

This report, published by the PICS-funded Living With Water project, is for practitioners who are interested in using participatory timeline mapping for multiple hazards.

This literature review explores key factors behind declining climate engagement in B.C. and proposes strategies to reverse the trend.

While B.C. is on the frontlines of the climate crisis, it is also at the forefront of developing climate solutions, and that makes B.C. a beacon for navigating this complex era — regionally, nationally, and internationally.

This report, released by the PICS-funded Living With Water project, considers the approaches, challenges, and case studies of using cost-benefit analysis (CBA) and multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) when considering relocation of a community from flood-prone areas.

A printer-friendly version of the report "Economic Assessment and Decision-Making for Community-Led Managed Retreat in British Columbia"

Community-led managed retreat considers how to relocate people and structures to reduce natural hazard risks and adapt to climate change. This summary introduces two of the most common tools used to help make these decisions based on community values.
