U of S study shows the changing climate and environment of Western Canada

SASKATOON - As a five-year study of the climate and hydrology of Western Canada comes to an end, researchers at the University of Saskatchewan (U of S) say they have diagnosed the water-borne impacts of recent climate change and are now predicting future impacts, including floods, droughts, and extreme weather events that could save lives and prevent billions of dollars in damages.


These findings from the U of S-led Changing Cold Regions Network are presented in the documentary, The Changing Climate and Environment of Western Canada, which premieres Tuesday evening at Saskatoon’s Roxy Theatre.
