Here\u0027s your weekly roundup of climate change news for the week of May 29 to June 4, 2023.
More than a dozen environmental groups are asking the province to delay planning on what would be B.C.’s second-largest LNG project so that its effects on federal and provincial emissions caps could be considered.
They asked the province to “significantly” extend the current public comment period, which ran from April 27 to May 29, or to postpone environmental assessment until more information on federal and provincial emissions caps was available. Lead author Kate Hale said her team analyzed mountain snow data and found snowpack water storage decreased more than 25 per cent from 1950 to 2013. This, she said, can be attributed to earlier snowmelt, less snowfall and more rain.
