Patagonia features threats to Canada’s Pacific coast

Patagonia’s 2011 Fall/Winter Surf catalog features Canada’s Great Bear Rainforest and the threats to this magnificent coastal archipelago from oil tankers.   If the Enbridge Northern Gateway Project is approved, 225 oil tankers could be traversing this region on an annual basis.

Raincoast’s in-house scientists, collaborating graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and professors make us unique among conservation groups. We work with First Nations, academic institutions, government, and other NGOs to build support and inform decisions that protect aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, and the wildlife that depend on them. We conduct ethically applied, process-oriented, and hypothesis-driven research that has immediate and relevant utility for conservation deliberations and the collective body of scientific knowledge.

We investigate to understand coastal species and processes. We inform by bringing science to decision-makers and communities. We inspire action to protect wildlife and wildlife habitats.
