After five decades of declining wildlife populations, now is not the time to walk back protections for biodiversity and habitats.

Protecting nature and boosting the economy are not mutually exclusive, but rather, interdependent goals.

Canada’s wildlife woes show nature is foundational in nation-building

From caribou to killer whales, Canada’s plummeting wildlife populations highlight the urgency of aligning 'major project' ambitions with biodiversity promises, a new WWF study shows.

We're disturbed by the numerous deaths of pedestrians and cyclists in Ottawa recently.

It's time for action.

We're garnering support for prohibiting all vehicular turns on red in downtown, for starters, and making this standard for protected intersections.

80 years ago, the world changed forever. This year, we honor those harmed by this legacy of violence, and light the path forward together. #HumanRaceNotArmsRace

A black-and-white collage of vintage televisions, each displaying different scenes. On the top row: runners in a marathon, a bombed-out building, and a person joyfully holding a dog. On the bottom row: a mushroom cloud from a nuclear explosion, children walking into a school, and a missile launch. Bold text overlays the center of the image in two parts:
"HUMAN RACE" (in white text on a black bar),
"NOT ARMS RACE" (in black text on a white bar).

The image contrasts peaceful, everyday human experiences with the destruction and threat of war, advocating for peace over militarization.

The science is clear that fossil fuel fueled climate change is making heat waves, fires, floods, hurricanes, & extreme weather worse. Yet major news outlets, especially TV news, often fail to name the connection. Demand they do better! sc.org/EndClimateSilence
