Director of the Centre for Sustainable Food Systems and Land and Food Systems professor Dr. Sean Smukler said we need to start investing in infrastructure for B.C.’s future climate.
“The challenge is that we need to start building the infrastructure for the climate of the next 30 to 100 years,” he said. “The public needs to understand the need to invest tax dollars in these projects so our kids can have local fruit and vegetables.”
