CBC News - New Brunswick - Bad weather is 'new normal': roundtable
New Brunswickers dealing with massive flooding likely don't need to be convinced of the effects of climate change.
A new report from the National Roundtable on the Environment and the Economy suggests volatile weather will only get more frequent in the future.
"I think what we are experiencing now and seeing now … in New Brunswick and elsewhere is the new normal," said David McLaughlin, the roundtable's president.
"The problem with climate change is it'll manifest itself in exactly that kind of way — different wild kind of changes in weather. You'll see storm surges. You'll see heavy rainfalls where you didn't expect to see them, unseasonably hot weather, unseasonably cold weather."
