Canada: images of felled ancient tree a ‘gut-punch’, old-growth experts say theguardian.com/world/2023/may…
Big move here from a federal liberal MP. Pressure is building on the @bcndp
This week, I submitted a motion in the House of Commons to preserve BC’s #oldgrowthforests. Currently, less than 8% of productive big trees old growth forests remain in BC, and less than 1/3 have legal protection. (1/4)
This motion is also in line with our commitments to #UNDRIP and helps us act on our climate action goals 🌎 In fact, old growth forests are significant carbon sinks and represent one of the most effective nature-based solutions to climate change. 🌳 (3/4)
Thank you to @AncientForestBC for all their help and support on this important motion. You can read more here: ourcommons.ca/members/en/pat… (4/4) #WestVancouver #SunshineCoast #SeatoSky #cdnpoli

@AncientForestBC @andymackinnonbc @TJWattPhoto Excellent presentations!
I attended this spectacular event last night. @TJWattPhoto and @andymackinnonbc transported their guests into the heart of the forests, and onto the barren land with their words and pictures. I hope everyone takes time to understand why old growth is so precious. @BCGreens
