BC First Nations
 
CCC is working with specific BC First Nations on climate change related business activities. This work includes identifying and executing sustainable strategies that leverage the business opportunities from emission reductions strategies on First Nation land. In conjunction with this, these First Nations use their traditional knowledge and expertise to ensure a respectful and sustainable balance between business and First Nations values and principles.

Background
BC First Nations have been among the main stewards for protecting our biosphere and geosphere and could play a key role in sustainable greenhouse gas reduction strategies.

Canada’s forests, which are among the largest on this planet, are of special concern to First Nations. Forests in general are among the most effective CO2 sequestering mechanism of the biosphere.
