Climate Change

This blog, written by Max Finkelstein, examines the very visible impact that climate change is having on ice formation and cover in Ottawa River watershed this year.

Climate change is altering the patterns of river ice coverage in our watershed. How will this affect our ecosystems? We explore three ways that a changing climate might impact our river systems and the species that live within them.

The Youth Water Leaders volunteered as paddlers for a performance of Deluge, a rock concert on rising seas, an amazing intersection between climate activism, powerful music, and a story that our world needs to hear.

As the world comes together for the 2020 Global Climate Strike, we stand in solidarity with everyone fighting for the health of our planet.

In the spirit of coming together, the environmental organizations of Ottawa Riverkeeper, CREDDO, Ecology Ottawa, and EnviroCentre have put their heads together to provide the communities of the National Capital Region and beyond with 10 ways to protect the environment during the COVID-19 pandemic.
