Columbia Basin Climate Source

A brief description of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome that outlines how credit criteria are met and any positive measurable outcomes associated with the innovation:
Columbia Basin Climate Source is a one-stop shop for climate change information relevant to communities in the Columbia Basin-Boundary region. It provides fine-scale climate projection data for Basin-Boundary communities, regionally-relevant impacts information, a database of local climate action examples, resources to inspire further action, and clear guidance on how to make sense of climate science.

The site was produced via a partnership between Columbia Basin Trust’s Climate Action Program and Selkirk Innovates, and made possible with funding from the Columbia Basin Trust and Selkirk College researchers developing the site.

The resource was featured in our TEDxSelkirkCollege 2021 event. See the talk here https://vimeo.com/652689099
