  • Canada expected to see 'temperature roller-coaster Spring-Forecast

The international climate change report has more bad news for the west coast.

Sherilee Harper of the University of Alberta and one of the 330 authors of the summary report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, there will be impacts on human health and well-being.

She says fleeing wildfires and flooding caused by climate change imposes mental-health costs.

Harper says those costs can also be indirect — the toll on farmers, for example, of not knowing what to expect from the weather or what crops would grow best.
