Assignment 4

Canada is very proud of its natural heritage and its fast amount of undeveloped natural environment. However, there is a lot of cause for concern among British Columbia’s Temperate Rainforest. The article below discusses success and concern regarding conservation and First Nations development within the Great Bear Rainforest in BC.


Please answer the following questions:

1. Is there a similar area of Taiwan or Korea that is under threat because of a lack of sustainability planning?

2. Do you think it is important to make plans for the sustainability of areas such as the Great Bear Rainforest that have a very difficult ecosystem?

3. In this article the government, logging companies, first nations organizations, and environmental organizations are all working together. Do you think it is important to involve all these groups when making decisions? Support your answer with an explanation.

4. Do you feel the environment is a problem and we should be working to help preserve it or that governments should be concentrating on economic reform?
