Our climate is changing, and it will continue to change in the coming decades. Individuals, businesses, communities, and government can work together to assess and manage the risks and opportunities of New Brunswick's changing climate. By taking action, we can adapt to the unavoidable impacts on our communities and ecosystems. Together, we can take action on climate change. This website provides information on how a changing climate affects New Brunswick and how we can adapt.
