Sick Chick decided to help Old Growth Revylution and donated WALL CLOCKS to the silent auction which is starting today - August 10th! The money raised during this auction will go to towards supporting the Old Growth Forest land defenders and help them cover the expenses they will encounter (food, gas, communications, etc.) This art auction also has for mission to spread awareness about the consequences of unsustainable logging practices. It's a call to action, a way to connect everyone together for the cause. Get your original piece of art NOW -> https://www.32auctions.com/organizations/87523/auctions/108238?r=1&t=all About Old Growth Revylution As you may know, Old Growth logging is still happening in BC even though there is only less than 2.7% of Old Growth forests remaining. This is catastrophic and we need to act NOW and let the government know we will not let this happen. A group of dedicated people have taken this cause to heart and are actively working to protect our beautiful forests, in the Revelstoke area our forests are part of the last remnants of the globally unique Inland Temperate Rainforest (ITR). They have formed a peaceful blockade at the Big Mouth FSR (120km north of Revelstoke) and have successfully paused the logging activity in that area. They need our support. The blockade calls on the BC government to protect the biodiversity in our old growth forests and to immediately support forestry workers to a more sustainable forestry economy. First Nations must be included in these goals. For more information, the goals of the Forest Defenders are the same as the government's own 14 Recommendations from their Strategic Review of How BC Manages Old Forests Within Ancient Ecosystems. https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/farming-natural-resources-and-industry/forestry/stewardship/old-growth-forests/strategic-review-20200430.pdf Follow @oldgrowthrevylution on Instagram #worthmorestanding
