We had a great event today with @TurnbullWhitby representing @NRCan, @CLOCA1, and @RegionofDurham to announce our partnership & plant our first tree at Lynde Shores Conservation Area. This year, 3,500 trees will be planted at this site. Thank you to all of our sponsors!

[Toronto Environmental Alliance (TEA) @TOenviro]

The new #IPCCReport is a dire warning about the impact of climate change - and an urgent call to action.

Cities like Toronto were designed for a climate that has changed. We need to move quickly to adapt our cities while transitioning off fossil fuels as quickly as possible.

Protecting the entire ecosystem is so important. Thank you to @conont and all of our #ConservationAuthorities for protecting our watersheds and their surrounding ecosystems.

[Conservation Ontario @conont]

Conservation Authorities are unique. They are a network of agencies organized on a #watershed basis to conserve and restore Ontario’s watersheds. Using a watershed approach means managing upstream activities to protect downstream conditions. #75YearsOfConservation
