An #environmental group is calling on the #PrinceGeorge #NaturalResources District to update #biodiversity #standards for the region’s #TimberSupply Area.

“The #BiodiversityOrder , which dates back to 2004, is not based on #science whatsoever — the targets within it need to be updated,” said #ConservationNorth ’s Asta Glembotzski. “If we don’t do that, we’re going to lose more #wildlife #habitat , and therefore more wildlife.”
