Join Neighbours United in Castlegar Sept. 28 for Families for Forests Day
By Contributor
Forests have long provided jobs, homes, and a good quality of life for our families and communities across British Columbia. But times have changed. Large corporations are profiting while local mills close, and the balance between a thriving forestry industry and healthy ecosystems is being lost.
On Families for Forests Day, let’s come together to show our support for the Biodiversity and Ecosystem Health Law – a proposed framework designed to protect wildlife, clean air and water, and ensure a sustainable forestry industry that prioritizes families, communities, and nature for generations to come.
Join your neighbours for a day of fun and action in support of B.C.’s forests!
