Climate Change

Climate change is a global concern, which may significantly affect the future of our young people. Evidence suggests human activities are impacting our climate now; resulting in warmer temperatures, frequent severe storms, droughts and forest fires. Scouts Canada works with Beavers through Rovers to foster attitudes and behaviours that care for the environment and use resources wisely.
