keep forests intact and carbon in the ground

Canada's forests and peatlands store a staggering amount of carbon—equivalent to 25 years of human-caused global greenhouse emissions!

Your gift will help prevent the acceleration of climate change by keeping this carbon locked in the ground where it belongs. You'll support plans to conserve high-density areas like peatlands in northern Ontario or Canada's boreal forest, which stretches from Yukon and northern B.C. all the way to Newfoundland and Labrador.

Plus, by helping preserve natural landscapes and carbon stores, you're also keeping habitat intact for species such as the Canada lynx, wolverine, caribou and short-eared owl.
