Sensitivities to climate change in Canada = Sensibilités aux changements climatiques au Canada.: M40-60/1999-PDF
"Increased greenhouse gas emissions caused by natural processes and human activities could seriously affect the way we live, work and play. Sensitivities to Climate Change in Canada graphically illustrates how changes in the world's climate could potentially have an impact on our country. ... The maps in Sensitivities to Climate Change in Canada show some of the changes that could occur with a doubling of CO2, as well as the sensitivity of some aspects of our landscape and ecosystems to climate change. Scientists from various federal government departments have produced these maps, based on information extracted from more comprehensive reports. These maps show clearly that a continued warming of the Earth's temperature could trigger a wide range of changes with serious consequences for our environment, our health, our economy and our children's future"--Message from the Minister, p. 2.
