Virtual forum brought together invasive species experts including over 60 speakers
The Invasive Species Centre hosted the fourth annual Invasive Species Forum, "Invasive Species Action in a Changing Climate," virtually Feb. 7 to 9 in partnership with Ontario’s Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry.
Invasive species are plants, animals, insects, and pathogens that are introduced to an area and cause harm to the environment, economy, or society. As a result of these threats, many beloved pastimes in Canada are impacted such as hiking, swimming, fishing, boating, and visiting local parks. “We are delighted to have record participation of over 900 attendees at the 3-day Invasive Species Forum," said Sarah Rang, executive director of the Invasive Species Centre. "The Invasive Species Centre is always looking for new partners, projects, and ideas to help protect lands and waters in Canada from invasive species.”
