This Earth Day, AFA and EEA are issuing a strong warning to the BC government about potential commercial logging in protected areas and calling on it to refocus on incomplete measures to protect old-growth forests, implement its draft Biodiversity and Ecosystem Health Framework, and ensure a transition to a sustainable, value-added second-growth forest industry.
