Canada’s Changing Climate Report 2019

Headline statements from the report:

  • Canada’s climate has warmed and will warm further in the future, driven by human influence. 
  • Both past and future warming in Canada is, on average, about double the magnitude of global warming. 
  • Oceans surrounding Canada have warmed, become more acidic, and less oxygenated, consistent with observed global ocean changes over the past century. 
  • The effects of widespread warming are evident in many parts of Canada and are projected to intensify in the future. 
  • Precipitation is projected to increase for most of Canada, on average, although summer rainfall may decrease in some areas. 
  • The seasonal availability of freshwater is changing, with an increased risk of water supply shortages in summer. 
  • A warmer climate will intensify some weather extremes in the future. 
  • Canadian areas of the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans have experienced longer and more widespread sea-ice-free conditions. 
  • Coastal flooding is expected to increase in many areas of Canada due to local sea level rise. 
  • The rate and magnitude of climate change under high versus low emission scenarios project two very different futures for Canada.

World Water Day - March 22, 2019

This year's World Water Day was celebrated with a networking lunch and workshop at the University Club, hosted by the Water Network and its student chapter, and the Global Water Futures Young Professionals. A panel of seven researchers and young professionals presented short three-minute synopses of their work, which was followed by a guided discussion over a light lunch. Results from the roundtable discussions will be presented in the next newsletter. 
CONGRATULATIONS to Noel Devaere, undergraduate student in Chemical Engineering and Management, who was recently awarded the B.K. Afghan Memorial Award to recognize a Hamilton and area undergrad student making a significant contribution to water analysis or treatment technologies. 

The B. K. Afghan Memorial Award commemorates the dedication of Dr. Baderuddin Khan (Aff) Afghan to the Chemical Institute of Canada, in particular, his service to the CIC Environment Division and the CIC Hamilton Section. Dr. Afghan was a driving force over the many years that he participated in their programs and especially in the initiation of the first symposium on The Protection of Source and Drinking Water Quality in 1992 with further symposia and many other contributions in the years following.

5. Invitation for Feedback: Prioritizing Future Challenges for Canada, CIHR, NSERC, SSHRC and the Canada Foundation for Innovation
Canada’s three research granting agencies, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, and the Canada Foundation for Innovation, are seeking your expertise to help prioritize which future challenges identified through a recent horizon scan are considered most important for Canada.
 
The scan has identified 16 future challenges with the potential to shape society in profound ways, which are all multi-disciplinary and require broad collaboration to address.

The granting agencies ask that you select one top challenge, and explore its possible impacts through a brief survey. For the challenge you select, you will be asked a series of questions. You will have the option of repeating the exercise for a challenge you deem of next-most importance. Beyond the 16 challenges identified in the horizon scan, you have the opportunity to identify additional challenges deemed critical to Canada’s future.
 
The granting agencies are inviting input from a variety of individuals across the academic, private, public and not-for-profit sectors, in Canada and internationally. By taking part in their brief prioritization exercise, using the Futurescaper crowdsourcing tool, you will help to identify which challenges to consider for possible future programming and/or corporate activities. Once you have reviewed the 16 future challenges, the exercise will take you approximately 10 - 15 minutes to complete.
 
To begin, please follow this link: FUTURE CHALLENGES PRIORITIZATION
 
Results of this foresight exercise will be available by Spring 2019. Responses are anonymous and results will be aggregated to ensure anonymity.
