Remediation & Berm Removal
The clean up of Brandt's Creek, located at the centre of the property, was the focus of CLC’s remediation efforts. At the time, the creek was heavily polluted and crossed the property through a series of culverts and shallow ditches. CLC developed a 4.4-acre (1.8-hectare) stream protection corridor, reinstating Brandt's Creek as a 350-metre waterway.
The new native plantings and natural structures restored the stream bank and in stream character of Brandt's Creek. This led to the return of a number of natural species to the property, including the great blue heron -- a majestic bird that had not been seen along the creek for several years.
Today, Brandt’s Creek Crossing is a thriving residential neighbourhood in one of B.C.’s fastest growing cities. The completed project is a testament to CLC’s strong commitment to environmental remediation.

Assainissement et déblaiement de la berme
Les efforts de nettoyage de la SIC ont été axés sur le ruisseau Brandt, au centre de la propriété. À l’époque, le ruisseau était très pollué et franchissait la propriété par une série de buses et de fossés peu profonds. La SIC a établi un corridor de protection du ruisseau de 4,4 acres (1,8 hectare) et a retracé le ruisseau Brandt sur une distance de 350 mètres.
Le recours à des plantes indigènes et à des structures naturelles a permis de restaurer les berges du ruisseau, et de lui redonner un caractère naturel plus invitant pour la faune. De nombreuses espèces sont donc revenues dans le secteur, y compris le grand héron – un oiseau imposant qui n’avait pas été observé sur la berge depuis des années.
Aujourd’hui, Brandt’s Creek Crossing est un quartier résidentiel animé situé dans une des villes à la croissance la plus rapide en C.-B. Ce projet illustre l’engagement de la SIC en matière d’assainissement environnemental.

Photo exhibition at the Palais des Nations entitled "Shared Risks, Shared Responsibility: Opportunities for Cooperation".
This photo exhibit is an event to highlight existing practices and opportunities to build disaster resilient communities and nations, as part of the Hyogo Framework for Action (HFA), a ten-year plan endorsed by the General Assembly in 2005 to coordinate country efforts to reduce disaster risk.
It provides visual evidence of how countries are interpreting the HFA principles to reduce risk to protect and advance development, and the need for this important work to be fully integrated into sustainable development initiatives.

BLAYAH TOWN, LIBERIA: Aug. 30, 2017 - The Jogbahn Clan fought against the British-owned company Equatorial Palm Oil (EPO) when they tried to take over their land in 2013. The people in the community depend on the land for their livelihoods. The Sustainable Development Institute (SDI) started to help the community by submitting a formal complaint to the to the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). SDI taught the clan about land rights and resisting with non-violence. THE RSPO determined that the land EPO was using belonged to the clan. SGI trained the community how to map their land and boundaries were created that EPO accepted not to cross. Photo by Morgana Wingard
