Save the Great Bear Rainforest
Target: Gordon Campbell, PremierSponsored by: Forest Ethics
The Great Bear Rainforest is the largest intact, unprotected coastal rainforest in the world. It is also home to one of the world's most mystical creatures—the pure white Spirit Bear.
In an historic effort, corporations and loggers have worked with environmentalists and local communities to create an agreement to protect the habitat of this magnificent creature. It’s called the Great Bear Rainforest Solution: a groundbreaking measure that outlines sustainable logging in British Columbia, Canada—and protects five million acres of rainforest from all logging.
It has taken eight years to craft this vital solution and gather support from a remarkably diverse coalition. But time is running out! The government must act to permanently protect the Great Bear by September 30, 2005—as it has promised!
Please urge Premier Campbell to ensure the survival of the rare white Spirit Bears, wild salmon, and 1,000-year-old cedar of the Great Bear Rainforest by supporting the Great Bear Rainforest Solution.

It is an important ecosystem with a unique fauna! It should be saved for future generations! Apart from that, there are so many people who travel half around the world to see Canadas National Parks and especially bears and wild salmon!!! Sustainable eco-tourism is the future!

It is vital that we sustain and protect Rainforests. All the creatures living with in this delicate ecostructure are at risk. Kill off the Bear down to the smallest rare insect and you have not only destroyed their eco chain but ours too. We cant as humans live without Rainforests as they are the generators of the air we breathe...its your air too. These special bears, white bears and the other creatures of this forest need to live without fear and that their habitat is safe forever. Why even contemplate doing this mass destruction? It's disgraceful!
