Climate Action Strategy
The CRD is working to reduce the organization’s greenhouse gases, prepare for climate impacts and support climate action efforts across the region. In 2021, CRD staff completed a comprehensive, data-driven planning process to create a renewed Climate Action Strategy that provides clarity on the role the CRD can play as a leader in climate action in the region.
Data and Indicators
As part of the Climate Action Strategy, the Capital Regional District (CRD) works to collect and share pertinent energy, emissions, climate projections and vulnerability data with local governments, interested groups and First Nations.
Coastal Flood Inundation
On behalf of local governments and other regional partners, the Capital Regional District (CRD) worked closely with an inter-municipal and multi-disciplinary project team to complete the Regional Coastal Flood Inundation Mapping Project in order to better understand regional impacts from coastal storm flooding due to sea level rise and tsunamis. The project was completed with support from the federal and provincial National Disaster Mitigation Program.
