ForestEthics

ForestEthics exists to protect Endangered Forests, wild places, wildlife, and human wellbeing through innovative, inspiring and effective campaigns that challenge corporations and catalyze environmental leadership in industry, governments and communities. ForestEthics has a proven track record of creating market pressure for conservation outcomes, generating consensus among First Nations, and implementing sustainable land-use planning strategies.

ForestEthics current work to stop development of coal-bed methane (CBM) in British Columbia's Sacred Headwaters—one of the most culturally and ecologically significant areas in Canada—was supported by the Campion Foundation in 2010. Sacred Headwaters is home to hundreds of animal species, including caribou, stone sheep, grizzly and black bears, hoary marmots, and a variety of birds. This region is the source of three of British Columbia's major wild salmon rivers (the Skeena, Nass and Stikine), and is culturally significant to many First Nations, including the Tahltan.

In the coming year, ForestEthics will continue its important work to strengthen the opposition to CBM development and drive efforts to establish a permanent legislative solution for Sacred Headwaters conservation.
