| Time to Protect Lands in the Heart of the Boreal | 01 June 05 | ||
 There is a new citizen action opportunity from the Natural Resources Defense Council's BioGems Campaign for Canada's boreal region known as the 'Heart of the Boreal'. This latest call to action emphasizes the need for protection of the traditional lands of the Pauingassi and Little Grand Rapids First Nations, as requested by these communities. Both communities are part of the World Heritage Site nomination. The BioGem Campaign allows visitors to express their views in support of protecting the boreal forest in this region and send letters of support through the NRDC web site. Past NRDC 'Action Alerts' for the 'Heart of the Boreal' BioGem have generated tens of thousands of letters to the Canadian Government, Manitoba Government, Ontario Government, and Manitoba Hydro.
