Temagami Wilderness Threatened by Logging and Mining

Threats to temperate and boreal forest ecosystems are every bit as pernicious and persistent as rainforest loss. One of the most significant remnants of the red and white pine forests which cloaked much of Eastern North America is threatened in the Temagami wilderness of Northern Ontario, Canada.

Following is an appeal for letters from the Carleton Forestry Working Group to save this important bioregion from further industrial forestry induced decline.
