Balancing Act: Climate Action in Agriculture
Climate action in agriculture is a balancing act 🌎 ⚖️
With climate change tipping the scales for agriculture, achieving resilience means both adapting to the impacts of past emissions and minimizing those of the future. And, as ACARN knows well, tackling these challenges requires a collective effort – no single group can address them alone.
Ethical Data Governance Toolkit
To increase the capacity for ethical data governance in the agriculture sector, ACARN partnered with researchers at UBC and beyond to co-develop resources to help farmers and others working with agricultural data. A free and open-access collection of resources available in multiple languages:
2020 Provincial Workshop
This online workshop explored climate adaptation research relevant to BC agriculture in 2020. Discussions covered pests and disease management, adaptive planning, application of weather monitoring tools, and Indigenous worldviews. With insights from researchers, producers, and industry leaders, these conversations fostered timely dialogue on adaptation strategies, barriers, and opportunities for resilience.
BC Agriculture and Climate Change Education Series
The BC Agriculture and Climate Change Education Series was created out of a four-part event exploring climate challenges and adaptation strategies in British Columbia’s agricultural sector. Hosted across eight post-secondary institutions in spring 2019, the series included expert presentations, Q&A sessions, and activities designed to bring regional and broader perspectives together.
