@WWF states that the world has seen an average “68% drop in mammal, bird, fish, reptiles and amphibian populations since 1970.” Grasslands have a wealth of biodiversity, yet due to the destruction of these grasslands, Canada has already noted a 60% decline in grassland birds.

Did you know grasslands are 1 of the most endangered ecosystems on the planet?  It’s vital that we work to protect these #grasslands right here in #sk!  Grasslands can sequester large amounts of #carbon, usually in the roots of the grass.

[EnviroCollective @EnviroCollect1]

We also hope that the mayor and city council will be able to experience the joy in safe active transportation and in meeting our city’s Energy and Sustainability Framework!
