Promoting Global Conservation
What happens in one region of the planet affects all others. As dust from the Sahara desert drifts far away to the Americas, the water cycle in Amazonian rainforests impacts weather patterns in Europe. Human development is disrupting these complex and essential natural systems with devastating impacts: plant and wildlife extinctions, deforestation, air and water pollution, climate change, and desertification. Whether it’s scrutinizing Canada’s federal Species at Risk Act, strengthening endangered species laws in the provinces of British Columbia and Ontario, or developing conservation plans with scientists and communities in Tibet, the David Suzuki Foundation is working hard to protect this beautiful planet and our fragile place in it.

Most of us connect nature with outdoor activities, but our natural surroundings provide much more than a simple place to camp, hike and swim. The trees, plants and animals provide services essential to all life - collectively they clean the water, purify the air and maintain the soil.
