You can breathe much better in an Old Growth forest. So can all the animals that live there, including salmon young. Take a trip there on Saturday if you can. Victoria, Vancouver Island, Canada

“...forests are not there to “serve” us. Rather we need to be wise enough to understand how they work and gratefully accept the benefits they offer...in this greedy, materialistic world it makes more economic sense to protect rather than to destroy the trees.” Jane Goodall 2019

This was our biggest day yet, Day 13 of Police Enforcement, Day 295 of Direct Action THANK YOU to the 2000+ people who made the journey to camp today. 200 people broke across the police line preventing access to Waterfall Camp, there are now hundreds camped out there.

People are taking to the streets in the hometown of British Columbia's premier to demand no more old-growth logging. I bet this kind of mobilization gets results--thanks so much to those who fight! #fairyCreekBlockade

“For years, customers accepted the myth that food just magically shows up at the grocery store. But COVID-19 got many of us to think differently about supply chains – how food is grown, produced, transported, packaged and retailed.” By theorca.ca/contributor/sy… #foodsecurity

Health warnings on ground beef? Don't bite into this bull! Health Canada has no grounds without extensive evidence. This isn't politics. This is self serving internal interest & epical systems failure when nutritious proteins are targeted over processed foods.
