Impacts of Climate Change on Canadians Changes over Canada are exceeding global averages Greatest dangers are due to changed frequency/intensity of extreme weather events Heat stress, enhanced disease risk and aggravated pollution will directly affect the health of Canadians Other adverse impacts include - Reduced lake levels - Increased risk of forest fire - Disruptive changes in ecosystem boundaries Climate change will also provide benefits - Lower winter heating costs, - Longer growing season and - Improved marine transport in ice covered waters DEARNESS ENVIRONMENTAL SOCIETY
