How Climate Change will Affect Saskatchewan PARC REPORT 2013 SUMMARY

key findings from the report (p.3) Increased water scarcity

key findings from the report (p.3) Significant ecosystem changes (invasive species, economic impacts ie. Agriculture, forestry, and aboriginal livelihood)

key findings from the report (p.3) Lose advantages of cold winters (winters destroys pests, assists with forestry)

key findings from the report (p.3) Adaptive capacity is unevenly distributed (the poor and rural will be hit harder) Low-income countries will remain on the frontline of human-induced climate change over the next century, experiencing gradual sea-level rises, stronger cyclones, warmer days and nights, more unpredictable rains, and larger and longer heatwaves, according to the most thorough assessment of the issue yet Oxfam predicted that world hunger would worsen as climate change inevitably hurt crop production and disrupted incomes. They suggested the number of people at risk of hunger might climb by 10% to 20% by 2050, with daily per-capita calorie availability falling across the world
