We wanted to thank everyone who came out and experienced our Pop-up ecology centre. It is because of you that we were such a success this summer!

We are so happy that we were able to be part of something so unique to Prince Rupert, and we hope to have the ecology centre reopen again in the future.

It is now time to say good-bye to our interpreters who, with the help of the board members and sponsors, worked hard to bring this new experience to Prince Rupert. This was an incredible journey that came with a lot of new experiences for ourselves and the community.

Great opening day for @CoastEcology's Pop-up mini-aquarium at Northland Cruise Terminal in #PrinceRupert! Many curious young minds engaged in the hands-on displays. We're proud to support this special exhibit and encourage everyone in the community to check it out!

Did you guys know that the Pacific Halibut are actually predators? For today's Thursday Thoughts, think about some of the animals that live in our ocean. Which of these creatures do you think halibut would hunt?

Let us know in the comments!

People tend to use weather and climate interchangeably. As you can see, they’re pretty different. But hey, you should bring up both at the dinner table! RT to help clear up the confusion.

New @SFU research warns of serious ecological consequences when Indigenous knowledge systems are lost. The research also highlights that biodiversity decline is slower on Indigenous land because Indigenous leadership fights for its protection.
