B.C. is one of the most unique places on earth, and with the World Cup in full swing people are visiting from all over the world to experience the mountains, oceans, and most importantly, our incredible ancient forests. But unsustainable logging practices and lack of protection have put these awe-inspiring ecosystems at risk.  


Old-growth forests are the foundation of life in B.C. They provide our communities with clean air and water, shelter endangered species, support B.C.’s billion-dollar tourism industry, and are culturally important to many First Nations.  


Despite repeated promises from the provincial government to protect these at-risk ecosystems, every day 100 soccer fields of irreplaceable old growth are cut down. And only a fraction of the most endangered stands are protected. 


You can help save what’s left. Go here to send a message to B.C.’s Minister of Forests, Ravi Parmar, and Premier Eby https://sierraclub.bc.ca/action_centre/protect-old-growth-forests-100-soccer-fields/
