Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair told a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> conference from Prince Edward Island, a province hit hard by Hurricane Fiona in September.<\/p>\n<p>The storm\u2014said to be the costliest to hit Canada&#8217;s Atlantic coast\u2014was just a taste of what&#8217;s to come, according to the government, which forecasts annual costs of natural disasters in Canada to rise to Can$15.4 billion by 2030.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are seeing in the last few years, not just in Canada but around the world, an increase in the frequency and severity of climate related events,&#8221; said Blair, citing extreme weather events that killed hundreds and devastated communities across the country.<\/p>\n<p>The adaptation strategy, which the government presented as a work-in-progress, was hailed as a &#8220;great step forward&#8221; by Greenpeace, while the Insurance Bureau of Canada, which represents home, car and business insurers, called it &#8220;ambitious.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Its goals also include making Canadians more aware of the risks of natural disasters in their communities, establishing 15 new urban national parks, conserving 30 percent of Canada&#8217;s lands and waters to stem biodiversity loss, and preventing all future deaths from extreme heat.<\/p>\n<p>Adaptation measures, according to a government statement, could result in up to Can$15 in savings for every dollar spent.<\/p>\n<p>New construction standards in fire and flood zones alone would save an estimated Can$4.7 billion a year, the government said, while noting that urban forests in Toronto\u2014Canada&#8217;s largest city\u2014have lowered cooling costs, improved air quality and reduced strains on stormwater sewers.<\/p>\n<p>The new funding builds on more than Can$8 billion already committed by Ottawa for adaptation and disaster relief since 2009.<\/p>\n<p>A fraught United Nations climate summit wr<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp;
