The Endangered Ecosystems Alliance (EEA) is working hard to expand the protected areas system across Canada, with an emphasis on the most endangered ecosystems (typically in southern Canada and coveted for logging, suburban sprawl or agricultural conversion) and with a novel approach that emphasizes the engagement of non-traditional allies (businesses, unions, faith groups, and others) to expand and strengthen the movement, ensuring concrete support for land-embedded communities (eg. Conservation financing to support Indigenous Protected Areas), and overall working on the large-scale awareness and engagement of Canadians in general on key campaigns and issues to enhance ecosystem literacy.
The EEA is aiming to raise $30,000 in grassroots fundraising by Environment Day June 5th, 2023, with an interim goal of $15,000 by Earth Day on April 22nd. Can you help us?
