B.C. restores 70 hectares as Cowichan marsh faces 60% loss by 2100

British Columbia invests $500,000 in a large-scale Cowichan Estuary restoration project. This initiative aims to strengthen watershed health and improve climate resilience for the region. The project focuses on rebuilding vital habitat for fish and wildlife populations. Indigenous stewardship is central, guiding land use and planting culturally significant species. This significant effort protects biodiversity and supports local communities dependent on the estuary.
