British Columbia restores estuary as 60% of marsh faces loss by 2100
British Columbia invests $500,000 in a large-scale Cowichan Estuary restoration project. This initiative aims to strengthen watershed health and improve climate resilience for the region. The project focuses on rebuilding vital habitat for fish and wildlife populations. Indigenous stewardship is central, guiding land use and planting culturally significant species. This significant effort protects biodiversity and supports local communities dependent on the estuary.
