Conservation

With every acre of fragile habitat and ecosystem destroyed, we threaten the species that depend on themincluding us.

Our habitat protection efforts ensure the health of nature’s ecosystems for future generations. Without protecting these areas, we risk losing vital species and weakening the resilience of our environment in the face of climate change.

As Whistler continues to grow, balancing development with environmental preservation is essential to AWARE’s mandate. The natural spaces that define Whistler aren’t just beautiful—they’re integral to our local economy, community, and quality of life.
