Record wildfires, crazy amounts of smoke and poor air quality, droughts, and floods - municipalities are experiencing the impacts of climate change in a big way. Cutting emissions is very important to prevent even worse impacts, but what is a small town or municipality to do to adapt to and avoid some of the bigger impacts of climate change? The Municipal Climate Change Action Centre in Alberta knows this so they created a program that has helped fund 26 communities to assess their climate risks and create climate adaptation plans. We head to Pincher Creek, Alberta to see how they are dealing with wildfires, drought and ironically floods as well.
