at the impacts of climate change High Temps and Higher Altitudes

The impact of global warming on the plants and animals of BC's alpine region dreams, and greeting you the moment you emerged in the morning. Not to mention the biting! We ran out of bug repellant by day two and resorted to wearing thick layers to survive the onslaught, which is not most people’s first choice of clothing in 35 Celsius sun. Unfortunately for the helicopter pilot, he arrived wearing shorts, a T-shirt and a conspicuous lack of bug spray. Needless to say, he was very eager to load us up and depart!

The bigger picture that’s becoming increasingly evident is that species are literally losing ground due to the climate crisis.
