The Saskatchewan government is releasing its 2021 climate resilience report, measuring the province’s improvements toward building resilience to a changing global climate.
Prairie Resilience climate change strategy – focuses on improving provincial resilience in five key areas: natural systems, physical infrastructure, economic sustainability, community preparedness and human well-being.
The report provides the current status (good, fair or poor) on 25 measures of resilience, defined as the ability to cope with, adapt to and recover from climate-related stress and change.
“The majority of measures in Saskatchewan’s climate resilience report are in good standing with none in poor standing,” Environment Minister Warren Kaeding said. “Our government is proud of our progress in protecting Saskatchewan people and communities from a changing climate and we will continue to work to identify areas that may require more preparation.”
