CALL TO ACTION IN THE GEORGIA BASIN: “Shall we continue with ‘Business as Usual’ or implement ‘Wise Use’?” asks Dr. Howard Macdonald Stewart, author of ‘Views of the Salish Sea: One Hundred and Fifty Years of Change around the Strait of Georgia’ (published in 2017)
“It is not mere coincidence that two-thirds of the population of British Columbia occupies lands bordering its great inland sea, the Strait of Georgia, and connected waterways collectively known as the North Salish Sea,” wrote Howard Macdonald Stewart. “If this precious sea is to be passed to future generations with any semblance of its inherent richness and diversity intact, then it will need to be effectively managed and vigorously defended. The first step is to understand the complex story of the region.”
