Baker Creek Enhancement Society (BCES)

The Baker Creek Enhancement Society's Mission:

To promote public awareness, stewardship and restoration of our local environment.

The Quesnel Climate Change Group, as committee of the BCES, is concerned about the effects of climate change on our environment and our way of life. Our objectives are to work with local government in developing strategies to reduce our local contribution to climate change, to develop strategies to mitigate the effects of climate change that has already occurred, and to implement these strategies.

Community Involvement:

- Consultations with residents & logging companies in the watershed to discuss their concerns

- Various stewardship programs with schools, Boy Scouts and Guides

- Community hikes & cleanups within the watershed

- Development of a Nature Education & Resource Centre

- Representation on various planning committees

- Weed Eradication with local volunteers

- Wood Stove Exchange Program

- Participation in the BC Frogwatch & BC Turtlewatch
