A national nature conservation charity is urging the Canadian and American governments to team up to address “twin existential” environmental crises: climate change and species collapse.
Nature Canada wants the two administrations to hone in on nature-based climate solution investments and the conservation of landscapes and seascapes, with a particular focus on Indigenous-led conservation. The organization notes the countries’ inextricable ties as reason to work side by side.
“Nature knows no political borders and there are great ecological corridors on the North American continent,” said Nature Canada executive director Graham Saul. “With Canada and the United States working together, we can get much further than either of us could alone.”
