Abstract
This Program reproduces papers delivered to the What do We Know panel discussion at York University, Toronto on June 7 2010. The What do we know? What do we need to know? Research project is a knowledge-gathering and knowledge-assessing project, the first national project to be funded on the climate change/work relationship in Canada. Papers presented initial findings for the sectors of energy, tourism, postal services, and transportation equipment, with overview remarks by Principal Investigator Carla Lipsig Mumme, placing the research in an international perspective.
