Canada has committed to protecting 25% of its lands and waters by 2025, but less than 11% is currently protected. Ontario Nature has identified an opportunity to work with the forestry industry to permanently protect over one million hectares of land and contribute to naturebased climate solutions in Ontario. Watch our video to learn how Ontario Nature is supporting the permanent protection of these sites.

This project is financially supported by the Metcalf Foundation and an anonymous donor.
