Quote:

Canada’s boreal forest provides vital breeding habitat for many of the world’s birds -- including nearly 40% of North America’s ducks, geese, and swans. In fact, each year, more than 300 species of birds, including bufflehead ducks, boreal chickadees, Cape May warblers, sparrows and more, spend time in this special place.

But oil and gas drilling, mining, logging and other industries are rapidly eating up the boreal forest’s vital habitat for birds and other wildlife. And with just 8% of the boreal forest now protected, more of this special place is being lost each year in the pursuit of profits.

Add your voice to the call for more responsible management of this natural treasure. Fill out the form below and add you name to our petition calling on the Canadian government to protect the boreal forest.
