Raincoast’s flagship projects

Through directed conservation efforts on umbrella species, Raincoast strives to protect all species and ecosystem processes existing along the British Columbia coastline.

We use on-the-ground, peer-reviewed science to further these objectives and more accurately understand the complexities of the coastal ecosystem. By furthering our knowledge base we are better equipped to both influence decision makers and inspire the public in an effort to conserve and protect the wild salmon, herring, grizzly bears, wolves, marine mammals, and marine birds, who make this coast their home.
