The names of local villages and the Peoples from the land on which the University of Victoria now sits were reclaimed and lifted up today as the names for the university's two new student housing and dining buildings.

The effects of marine heatwaves caused by climate change on corals and biodiversity are worse than previously thought, according to new University of Victoria research published on Friday that also provides important clues about broader coral diversity and marine ecosystem health as the world grapples with record ocean temperatures.

From urban tree cooling, to creating products from air pollution, to helping mountain communities adapt to climate change, five BC research teams have received funding from the Pacific Institute for Climate Solutions (PICS) to accelerate climate action.

A University of Victoria-led project on Wednesday revealed worsening alcohol policy grades across the country and proposed detailed steps to get Canada back on track.

Earth Day is April 22, marked every year since 1970, and yet the environmental challenges for our planet and the life it supports continue.

Marine heatwaves triggered by climate change pose an imminent threat to the world's coral reefs. But most reefs are also exposed to local stressors, ranging from coastal development, pollution and overfishing.
