We are doing our part to offset any travel-related emissions:
LSF is offsetting our carbon emissions for travel to our in-person Youth Forums by purchasing carbon credits through Tree Canada‘s Grow Clean Air program that help protect old-growth trees in the Coastal First Nations – Great Bear Initiative in BC.
In recognition of teams participating in the in-person Youth Forums, LSF is planting one tree per team through Trees Canada National Greening Program. This program supports the restoration of forests and wildlife habitats and contributes to cleaner air, soil and waterways in Canada
