Sierra Life: Let’s Keep B.C. Parks Pipeline-free
Question: How long a piece of paper do you need to list 166,000 names? Answer: 90 feet! That’s the length of the petition we presented to the B.C. government asking them to keep pipelines out of B.C. parks and scrap the Parks Amendment Act.
Forests and climate campaigner, Jens Wieting explains why we should be concerned about the B.C. government's plan to give forestry companies more control over B.C. forests. Read more about this issue.
The joint review panel released their findings on the Site C dam last week. The panel were as unconvinced as we are that B.C. needs Site C, an expensive project that would destroy agricultural land, threatens wildlife and violates First Nations rights.
