Exciting to be participating in the annual Ontario Urban Forest conference! Always energizing to connect with experts and those working tirelessly to support trees and all Greeninfrastructure in our urban areas!
Don't let Nelson Lafarge blow a hole in our Niagara Escarpment! Critical Call to ACTION. Deadline: Dec.14.2020 The Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) is NOW accepting objection letters from the public regarding Nelson Aggregate's quarry application. The deadline to submit letters is no later than December 14th, 2020 but we urge you to respond immediately. If you have already written a letter to the City of Burlington, you may use that letter again (or parts of ...it) in your comments to the MNRF. This round of responses is one of three that we face during this complicated, and time consuming, application approval/disapproval process. We can NOT stress enough how essential public comments are to this process. Yes, lots of experts are reviewing reports and assessing the impacts of more open-pit mining on Burlington’s escarpment, but ultimately this may come down to a political decision at the Provincial level. The content of your comment certainly makes a difference: the more factual you can make it, the better. However, the number of comments from the public wields tremendous influence. Politicians run on people-power. PROCRASTINATION IS NOT AN OPTION Follow this link to get the step-by-step to submit your letters! https://bit.ly/3kGl6k8 #Burlington #NoQuarry #environment See more

Need motivation to write a letter to your MPP? Read this and your blood will boil! ...decades of environmental progress are headed for the trash bin because of a government committed to an environmentally destructive agenda of putting developer interests first.
Well said by our colleagues Environment Hamilton! Have you taken action yet? Please call or write your MPP or send them a letter electronically using the link below! OPPOSITION IS GROWING to the Ford Government's plan to gut Ontario's conservation authorities. We need our CAs now more than ever before. Their watershed planning and management skills are essential for building climate resilient communities. And, heck, who hasn't enjoyed a local conservation area during ...the pandemic? Many individual Ontarians, community organizations, municipal councils, conservation authorities, the government's own Greenbelt Council - are speaking out and calling for the government to remove Schedule 6 from Bill 229. Have you taken action yet? Please call or write your MPP or send them a letter electronically using the link below!
New project, increasing pollinator habitat! We are so excited to break ground today! Thanks to a TD Friends of the Environment grant a new Pollinator Pathway; hundreds of native species will be planted. Thanks to the @TownofOakville for their help and support. #pollinators #pollinatorpathway #biodiversity
Time for the Province to listen to experts & constituents! #NoPlan #ConservationMatters #ClimateAction Call your MPP. This year’s Auditor General report confirms that Ontario’s promises to protect and preserve our environment are hollow. The Made-In-Ontario Environment Plan has been sitting on a shelf gathering dust...
Great garden tips! Thanks for the reminder!
