2013: A year of extremes

An article in L’Actualité discusses extreme weather conditions in 2013 and mentions that Canadian winter temperatures have risen, on average, 2.5 degrees Celsius since 1950. The article quotes Damon Matthews, a professor in the Department of Geography, Planning and Environment, who comments on the effects of climate change on the outdoor skating season. 

An article in Wawatay News, a First Nations’ newspaper in Northern Ontario, about the impact of global warming discusses Matthews's research.

Please Note: On Monday, March 18 at 7 p.m. Matthews will appear on Vert Avenir on MétéoMédia to discuss climate change. They will rebroadcast the episode at 10 p.m. and midnight. For more information visit: MétéoMédia.
