Interesting article that relates to the snow survey work done by our partner project the North Kootenay Lake Water Monitoring Project: "...this is the water that's available for hydropower generation, for human consumption.." #snowdepth #watermonitoring

Hey #boaters, don't forget to #CleanDrainDry your trailer and your boat. Help prevent the spread of invasive species in BC waters. #BCinvasivesmonth

[Boreal Conservation @Borealconserve]

Millions of crystal-clear lakes. Thousands of kilometres of unbroken rivers. A quarter of the world’s wetlands. Taken together, these fresh, clean waters found in the #Boreal Forest in Canada make up the most surface freshwater found in any ecosystem on the planet. #conservation

[CKISS @CKISS_Kootenay]

Did you know that your pet could be spreading invasive species? Be sure to clean burs, seeds, and dirt off your dog (or very adventurous cat) before leaving the trail. #PlayCleanGo #BCInvasives

"We face a 56 percent shortfall of the available  global water supply  by 2030, according to WRI, a figure previously estimated at 40 percent.  This is driven by both rising demand and falling supply because of climate change impacts." #watersupply https://t.co/NnaOEoFfjv

As we approach #WorldMigratoryBirdDay, here are some Boreal Forest facts worth knowing: the #boreal is known as North America's Bird Nursery because it provides billions of migratory birds with the nesting grounds and intact forests they need to thrive. https://t.co/tw68MOBMYt

[Convention on Wetlands @RamsarConv]

World Migratory Bird Day is coming on 9 May - 50 billion migratory birds each year travel thousands of km stopping along the way at coastal #wetlands as “refuelling stations” - if these wetlands disappear & degrade entire populations of birds are at risk #keepwetlands #WMBD2020
