East Kootenay environmental organization seeks public feedback

Wildsight, a local environmental organization, is asking for public feedback about their work and community involvement. “We’re a grassroots environmental organization that works with communities and it’s important to us to know what people think,” said Juri Peepre, Wildsight Regional’s board Chair. The organization would like to hear from the public about what they’re doing well, and what they could be doing better. To that end they’ve created a survey online so area residents can share their thoughts and ideas about the organization.

2012 will mark 25 years of the organization’s conservation work in the East Kootenay. However, as Wildsight works for the environment, it does so by working with people and communities. “The environment can’t speak for itself. But people can and we want to hear what they have to say, what they think about our home place and what we can do better to help look after it,” said Peepre.

Wildsight has a short survey online for the public to fill out, with questions about what people think about the organization and opportunities for suggestions about what they can do better. The survey is available online at www.WildsightSurvey.com

Wildsight works locally, regionally and globally to protect biodiversity and encourage sustainable communities in Canada’s Columbia and Southern Rocky Mountain region. For more information, please visit www.Wildsight.ca
