“Bear”ricade. Photos and Digital Media. Digital Collage. Photo samples obtained online. Featuring @nathanielglickman and text by @sea_palm and @globeandmail . You may have noticed that my feed has recently been occupied by events happening at Eden Grove and Fairy Creek. I’ve been preoccupied with staying on top of what’s happening and finding ways to give voice to those standing up for ancient forests. I have a lot to learn, but I can say that emotionally I’m shocked we are in this situation. Is it too much to hope that we would have developed and be practicing sustainable logging by now, with all that we know. It is too much to hope that by now we would understand the value of this land to the indigenous people. @bcndp @johnhorgan4bc #ancientforest #ancientforests #landback #worthmorestanding #iphonography #art #artist #artistsoninstagram #canadianartist #digitalart #digitalartist #decim8 #procreate #prisma #bcndp #johnhorgan https://www.instagram.com/p/CPTdM3ptJYW/?utm_medium=tumblr

WORTH MORE STANDING Thanks Alex at Seas and Trees! I love my poster. I love that proceeds from selling these posters and stickers etc. helps support forest defenders on the Island. Our old growth really is worth more standing. As our climate crisis deepens, the value of these trees and these remnant forests becomes increases dramatically. 🌲🌲🌲 🙏 #oldgrowthforest #worthmorestanding (at Courtenay, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc9X10OtY1a/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"WORTH MORE STANDING," @johnhorgan4bc @bcndp Yes, BC's Premier said this about old growth forests, while electioneering in 2020. Today, in 2021, he and his government are supporting the logging of old growth. This is a call to action for all of us who know the deeper value of our old growth forests, who, if we are colonists on this land, value and honour First Nations' claims and culture. Stop the logging. Focus on land claims. Heal these wounds. Posted @withregram • @tzeporahberman Join constituents around B.C. for a unified day of action on June 10th to let your MLA and the @bcndp know that old growth is #WorthMoreStanding. This event is being organized in solidarity with Indigenous land defenders and their allies at the @fairycreekblockade to call on the B.C. government to implement immediate deferrals in the 1.3 million hectares of at-risk old growth. Premier Horgan’s forest announcement on Tuesday disappointed people across the province who were expecting the B.C. NDP to finally show some leadership on old growth protection. Horgan didn’t indicate any action on deferrals or reprieve for the arrests being made at Fairy Creek. As he was speaking, forest defenders were literally being removed by the RCMP. If you’re feeling disheartened and enraged right now – you’re not alone. But let’s use this as fuel to double down the pressure on MLAs because we have inside intel that this strategy is working. 1. RSVP on our Facebook event and share your event there: LINK IN BIO 2. Get organized with other people in your riding - however big or small, every action makes a difference! 3. Email [email protected] by Monday, June 7th with your planned event so we can amplify and add it to our media list 4. Share this with your network.
