Save Waterton Glacier International Peace Park
- Target: Canada, United States and United Nations
- Sponsored by: Eleven Leading Canadian and US Environmental Groups
This month the UNESCO World Heritage Committee will meet in Spain to rule on a petition that was submitted by eleven leading environmental groups in the US and Canada to add the Waterton-Glacier World Heritage Site to the list of sites "In Danger."
Currently there is a coal mine proposal within kilometers upstream of the World Heritage Site, and other mineral exploration has been ongoing even closer to the parks boundary.
Send a message to the United Nations, Canada, and the United States that mining and energy development does not belong upstream of the Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park, and demand permanent protection.
We the undersigned support the international petition to declare Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park a UNESCO World Heritage Site In Danger.
Until British Columbia%u2019s land use plan is changed to protect the outstanding universal values of the adjacent World Heritage Site Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park will be at risk.
Please save Waterton-Glacier:- Designate a National Park Reserve Wilderness Area in the south-eastern one-third of British Columbia%u2019s Flathead River Valley.
- Create a Southern Rockies Wildlife Management Area connecting habitat through the Flathead, Wigwam, Elk and Bull River valleys.
- Permanently stop drilling and mining in the Flathead River Valley.
Thank you for your time and consideration. We trust that you will do the right thing.
