To explore and humanize these risks we return to CBC Podcast 2050: Degrees of Change News Montage<\/a>..\n\nIn this clip we hear from Emily McNair, part of the Climate Action Initiative working with farmers in BC to plan for climate changes, and Lydia Ryall, whose farm sits on Westham Island in the Fraser River Delta. Her farm is threatened by sea level rise the increasing risk of what is known as a salt wedge, or the influx of salt water into the fresh water she uses for irrigation. Start listening at 5:11.
