Initiative to protect Hudson Bay Lowlands to benefit from $800M investment

The Hudson Bay Lowlands are home to one of the largest #peatland complexes in the world and store an estimated 30 billion tonnes of #carbon. The region is also an important habitat for billions of migratory birds.

"It's important in terms of cooling Mother Earth," Vern Cheechoo said. "The elders called it the breathing lands."
