Want to do MORE? Good! Because THERE'S MORE! Why not bring a pal to a brand new film by our incredible friends #CPAWS about exactly this topic? Check out the official premiere of #DryHorizons on Feb 25! /6
#StopCoal #SaveOurSlopes #ProtectOurWater #MountainsNotMines #SaveOurMountains #abpoli #yyc
CPAWS #Alberta opposes the new #Coal Industry Modernization Initiative (CIMI). While it claims to protect waters, it leaves room for controversial projects like #GrassyMountain & Mine 14. CIMI prioritizes industry over public consultation, risking habitat areas. People in Alberta protested before & they/we will protest again to protect the Rockies, ecosystems, & the water that is used for drinking, irrigation, & food processing 🌲💧#NoNewCoal #SaveOurMountains #CPAWS

One of the great many challenges climate activists face are crushing setbacks in a world often determined to make every mistake & never learn from them. We asked some of Calgary's best how they overcome adversity and step up the fight on #TheBigWhy https://youtu.be/KD79PFtQfM4

It might be the most important question in all of #Climate: "I can't put it off any more, I have to do something but what? And how?" We asked some of Calgary's best activists on #TheBigWhy

"Since the logging deal in 2001 #KCountry has become a beloved natural recreation destination and tourist attraction for cycling, hiking and just connecting with our natural world."
Activists shared a win on the #Kananaskis logging slowdown, temporarily saving 2000 football fields worth of climate-preserving forest & trails but for how long & what comes next? We asked the Hub's Jenny Yeremiy & Josh Killeen of #CPAWS
"Under a deal set up all the way back in 2001 by #Alberta's provincial government, a logging company called #SprayLakeSawmills acquired the rights to chop down the equivalent of 2K football fields of #KananaskisCountry’s #UpperHighwood area forests."

Consider a donation to the Bow River Trout Foundation since
they’ve done the job of the regulators and lawmakers and have likely saved some endangered Bull trout

Parks Canada's National Urban Parks program is the most exciting development in protecting land I have seen in decades - it conserves special places for nature nearer to where people live.
One is proposed for Halifax, and Toronto's Rouge National Urban Park is the pilot.
They are consulting on how to do this right - do add your say

As a side #project I used to volunteer with #CPAWS where I helped to review and comment on park management plans https://cpaws-ov-vo.org/
Quite a facinating consulting process
