Q & A
Lindsay Wood

My Blog
Hometown:
Halifax, Nova Scotia
What conservation issue is closest to your heart?
Loss of species, pollution and overexploitation of natural resources.
What are you hoping to learn from CCC?
I’m expecting to meet interesting people, be challenged and learn new things. I’m also expecting to get blisters, be cold, and be really happy at the same time.
Who/what inspired you to care about conservation?
Spending time with animals and in nature has inspired me to care about conservation. Humans are not so different from other animals in the ways that matter. Separating ourselves from nature is a root cause of many problems in the world.
If you could sit down with anyone in the world and have tea or coffee, who would it be? And why?
Jane Goodall. She has dedicated her life to conservation and has been through a lot, yet somehow she remains hopeful and happy.

My Experience So Far

Rambling Through the Rocky Mountains

Stage 1

The group dubbed “The Mountain Goats” will enjoy a challenging journey of self-discovery and exploration, hiking through the terrain of the spectacular Canadian Rocky Mountains. They will travel distances each day, sharing responsibilities including campsite management, cooking, navigation and group leadership as they follow the footsteps of inspired artists and adventurers, seekers and sages. This is more than learning the technical skills of backpacking – this is an adventure designed to illustrate why the wilderness environment is the best teacher.

Conservation Field Learning

Stage 2

Location: Quebec City, QC

Hosting Organization: EWAG - Education and Water Monitoring Action Group

Description:
• Participate in the development of a large river monitoring network to learn about how to adapt to the future and to climate change
