Provincial / National Hotspot > 153 Species At Risk (SAR) 77% of Ontario total 25% of all Canadian SAR

Since 1984 Carolinian Canada Coalition To preserve, protect and restore the ecosystems, flora and fauna of the Carolinian Life Zone in southwestern Ontario… To conduct research… and disseminate the results... To… increase the public's understanding of the importance of conserving the natural features…

Carolinian Canada Strategic Plan Catalyzing Effective Action Innovative Partnerships Capacity-building Outreach Promoting a Researched Understanding Woodland Recovery Big Picture Monitoring Carolinian Research Network Networking for Stewardship & Sustainability Environment & Sustainability Forum Growing Network Building a Viable Coalition Board Capacity Budget Growth

= Healthy Ecosystems = Healthy Landscapes = Thriving Communities The Big Picture

Strong Friends Connect and grow the conservation community in meaningful ways Grow Wild! Leaders Provide sound information and useful tools to enhance and restore habitat Biodiversity Hotspots Work with priority partners to recover and monitor a functioning ecological system of habitat cores and corridors Big Picture Coordinate a Big Picture conservation strategy for thriving landscapes

= Healthy Ecosystems = Healthy Landscapes = Thriving Communities The Big Picture

The Issues 1. Big Picture Update -Linking “Local Pictures” -Climate change -Ecosystem services -Stewardship -New science / technology / analyses -Are we making progress? How? What are the gaps? -Link local to ecoregional to global monitoring

The Issues 2. Ecosystem Values -Rewards for healthy habitats? -Is regulation our only tool? -Inspire an intuitive understanding -Share stories – the power of oral history -Catalyze a seismic shift in perception -How much is a healthy future worth?

The Issues 3. Who is leading? - Government? -Greenies? -Innovators? -Networkers? -Economy? -The kids? -Coordination, Coordination, Coordination What are we waiting for?

We need to be the strong, resilient community we want to build Thanks to 100+ partners, volunteers, sponsors & photo contributors Thanks to 100+ partners, volunteers, sponsors & photo contributors
