Call To Action

  1. Tell the Government to Identify All Necessary Critical Habitat: Logging has destroyed spotted owl habitat resulting in only one wild-born owl left. Follow this link to add your name to a message to identify critical habitat!

  2. March 22nd is World Water Day: What can you do to play your part in protecting the water of our planet? In North America the three top actions to protect our water are: (1) Save water in your household (having shorter showers for example); (2) Stop polluting  - Don’t put food waste, oils or medicines down the toilet; and (3) Eat Local and look for products made with less water (minimize meat and animal products).
