Mansfield, B. 2014. Wake up call: California drought and B.C.’s Food Security. Report commissioned by Vancity. October 10, 2014

Report commissioned by Vancity and written by Brent Mansfield, Co-chair, BC Food Systems Network. The current drought levels in California are a wake up call that B.C. needs to become more self-reliant to secure
our access to healthy food for our future. Drought has persisted in California over the past three years, with the majority of the state in “extreme” or “exceptional” drought, the two worst categories.
