About the Campaign
Canada’s nature isn’t being considered when it comes to human development. This oversight has led to the degradation of our oceans, grasslands, forests, and wetlands. Over the last 50 years, species at risk across the country have declined by over 50 percent. Today, less than 15 percent of our land, freshwater and oceans are protected. To prevent environmental catastrophe, we must take urgent action to protect the nature we know and love before it’s too late.

About the Solution
30×30 is Canada’s goal for nature protection. Our government has joined the High Ambition Coalition, a global movement to protect 30 percent of the world’s land and ocean by 2030. Now, the federal and provincial governments need to work together to meet that target, halt nature loss, and set us on the path to recovery for wildlife and wild spaces.
