Climate Compared: Climate Change Opinions in the United States and Canada
The Canada Institute is delighted to host a panel discussion to discuss the results from national-level surveys on public attitudes toward climate change in the United States and Canada.
Our expert panelists will highlight key findings from the 2016 comparative study, draw analyses from the differences and similarities between Canada and U.S. public views, and provide insight into how this could affect existing climate change policy and potential future policy approaches on both sides of the border.
Panelists:
- Barry Rabe, Wilson Center Public Policy Scholar
- Christopher Borick, Muhlenberg Institute of Public Opinion
- Erick Lachapelle, University of Montreal
- Sarah Mills, University of Michigan

Global Risk and Resilience Program
The Global Risk and Resilience Program (GRRP) seeks to support the development of inclusive, resilient networks in local communities facing global change. By providing a platform for sharing lessons, mapping knowledge, and linking people and ideas, GRRP and its affiliated programs empower policymakers, practitioners, and community members to participate in the global dialogue on sustainability and resilience.
