Two ways you can support old-growth forests in BC during Ancient Forest Alliance’s Giving Tuesday campaign from Nov. 21 to Dec. 1, 2023!
Join us for our Year-End Celebration and Fundraiser on Tuesday, November 28th, 6–9 pm for a fun-filled evening with AFA staff and supporters!
Listen to this interview with Endangered Ecosystems Alliance’s Ken Wu, speaking about the significance of the draft Biodiversity and Ecosystem Health Framework.
BC’s government is implementing further steps to protect the province’s at-risk environment through a new biodiversity and ecosystem health framework.
The Roosevelt elk is Vancouver Island’s largest and most charismatic land mammal and is specially adapted to the temperate rainforests of the Pacific Northwest.
Conservationists say the Biodiversity and Ecosystem Health Framework (BEHF) could ensure a major paradigm shift to safeguard the most endangered and least protected ecosystems, such as big-treed old-growth forests, if done correctly.
The tripartite nature agreement comes with new and old funding to protect old-growth forests as well as species at risk.
In a historic agreement between the federal and provincial governments, over $1 billion has been allocated to protect 30% of BC’s lands and waters by 2030.
Together, the federal and BC governments have provided $1.1 billion to go toward achieving BC’s 30% by 2030 nature protection, conservation, and restoration goals via First Nations conservation agreements.
We would like to extend a massive thank you to these businesses for generously supporting AFA and the old-growth campaign.
