This episode features an update on the Highlands Corridor Project, an ambitious local undertaking to create and protect a continuous wetland and wildlife corridor across the southern part of Haliburton County and beyond.
Canada has committed to increasing its protected spaces and intact ecosystems from the current level of 12% to 25% by 2025 and 30% by 2030. Currently, less than 11% of Ontario’s land mass is protected, so we have a very long way to go.
The Haliburton Highlands Land Trust’s Sheila Ziman, and wildlife biologist Paul Heaven, join me for this conversation focused on how the Highlands Corridor Project will bolster local biodiversity, keep wetland-sequestered carbon in the ground and help build ecological sustainability in Haliburton County and beyond.
