JODY HOLMES on Keeping the Great Bear Standing /51
Published 9 years, 1 month ago
Description
The decades-long struggle over British Columbia's coastal rainforests culminated in an extraordinary conservation, social justice, and Indigenous rights victory: a historic multi-generational agreement to conserve and sustainably manage the Great Bear Rainforest, one of the largest old growth temperate rainforests on the planet. We are joined by Jody Holmes, primary architect of this agreement.
