Engineers and Geoscientists BC recognizes the effects of a changing climate will require more immediate action in certain areas of professional practice than others. However, climate change is a complex, trans-generational issue with challenges and opportunities for the immediate and long-term future which can only be effectively tackled by a measured approach that elicits a ‘culture shift’ in the way we practice our professions.
As such, the intent of the action plan is to provide Engineers and Geoscientists BC with a long-term strategic approach to considering climate change and its impact on the engineering and geoscience professions. It will guide the development of well-informed decisions and actions that ensure the future engineering and geoscience professions continue to work in the public interest.
