Fairy Creek
@fairycreek.bsky.social
Just joined #Bluesky! We're here to bring awareness to the #FairyCreek watershed in Vancouver Island, BC and save it from further destruction. Home to 1000-year-old trees, and the last 2% of old-growth forests.

Another disgusting move by @mark-carney.bsky.social & Danielle Smith against the environment & First Nations.
But what did you expect? Carney was a former banker & exec of #Brookfield Asset Mgmt. He's only here to enrich himself & greedy companies.

This agreement is a massive betrayal of Canada’s commitments on climate change and Indigenous rights.
And we won’t stand by it.

Why just "extend temporary protections" in the #FairyCreek watershed until Sep. 30, 2026?
Both Canada and BC committed to the UNDRIP. You can't pick and choose which First Nations' rights to uphold.

FIFA awarding the "peace prize" (Temu version) is beyond vomit-inducing.
Having a clean environment is a criteria to peace. But that's not what #FIFA is known for.
Canadians must show the same unity in boycotting travel to US. #BoycottFIFA Vancouver in 2026!

Teal Jones filed for bankruptcy under CCAA in 2024. TJ fought the community, protesters, and Indigenous leaders in the courts to keep logging Fairy Creek, the last 2% of old-growth forests -- to keep raking in the profits.
Unless TJ changes its ways, let's ensure it remains in the red.

Tree Logger: "People believe that we have to save every last old-growth tree, but I don't believe that's true."

@mit.edu Experts: "[W]e should not only plant more trees but also put much more effort into protecting existing forests."
1 hectare of forest = can hold 180 tons of CO2, atm
Canada GHG emissions, 2024 = 586,674,000 tons

"Drax power plant has continued to burn 250-year-old trees sourced from some of Canada’s oldest forests..."
Why does BC & Canada allow this? Do the #British citizens know they are subsidizing this?

If there's one thing you can watch today to learn about the destruction of Fairy Creek, Vancouver Island -- the last 2% of old-growth forests, watch this.
#FairyCreek is for all Canadians, not just for the few.
