Save Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park

This month UNESCO's World Heritage Committee will meet to rule on a petition submitted by eleven leading environmental groups in the US and Canada. The petition requests that Waterton-Glacier World Heritage site be added to the list of sites "In Danger."

We're asking Canadian and US decisionmakers to

  • Put an immediate, permanent stop to drilling and mining in the Flathead River Valley.
  • Fill in the missing piece of Waterton Glacier International Peace Park by creating a National Park in the lower one-third of the Flathead River Valley.
  • Establish a Wildlife Management Area in the rest of the valley and adjoining habitat that preserves essential wildlife corridors in the Flathead, Wigwam, Elk and Bull River valleys, and links to protected areas further north.

What are your thoughts?

Please edit and send a letter to decisionmakers below.
