Tell Canada’s Prime Minister to Save the Boreal Forest
The logging industry is clearcutting one million acres of Canada’s boreal forest every year for lumber, toilet paper, and other forest products. Not only does the boreal play an essential role in combating climate change—storing twice as much carbon as the world’s oil reserves—it is also home to many Indigenous communities and countless threatened wildlife. If the Canadian government is serious about tackling the climate crisis, it must close the regulatory loopholes and accounting gimmicks that give the logging industry a free pass for destroying this irreplaceable forest. Tell Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to stop putting profits above our planet and people.
