Yukon Government
Climate Change Action Plan
The Yukon Government Climate Change Action Plan sets out how the Yukon government is responding to climate change. The plan, providing clear direction and action, advances the goals of:
- Enhancing our knowledge and understanding of climate change,
- Improving our ability to adapt to climate change,
- Reducing our greenhouse gas emissions, and
- Leading Yukon action in response to climate change.
The Yukon government released two progress reports, one in fall 2012 and the second in winter 2015. The reports not only show that the government is following through on its commitment to respond effectively to climate change, but may also encourage individuals and businesses to take action as well.
Work by the Yukon government and others in response to climate change will provide economic, social and other environmental benefits. It is essential that we all prepare for the impacts of a warming climate. Climate change is real, and it threatens our forests, our watersheds, and our way of life.
