Teck and BC Parks Foundation Partner to Support Natural Spaces Across B.C.

06.12.2022 | 17:51 Uhr | GlobeNewswire

VANCOUVER, Dec. 06, 2022 - Teck Resources Ltd. (TSX: TECK.A and TECK.B, NYSE: TECK) ("Teck") and the BC Parks Foundation today announced a $5 million donation from Teck to the BC Parks Foundation to enhance and expand BC's world-class system of parks and protected areas.

The collaboration between Teck and the BC Parks Foundation will help to preserve and expand green spaces in rural and urban areas, protect important natural park lands and give more people the opportunity to enjoy BC's incredible natural wealth. Funds will be used to expand successful initiatives including:

  • Helping create new protected areas and animal migration corridors, to preserve natural spaces and mitigate climate change.
  • Getting more people involved in monitoring and protecting wildlife and their habitats.
  • Promoting responsible and safe enjoyment of natural areas through educational activities and events for visitors and children.
  • Working with Indigenous people to create informative trails and experiences in parks to foster reconciliation.
  • Providing British Columbians the opportunity to experience the health benefits of nature, including park experiences for vulnerable and marginalized people.

The partnership aligns with Teck's commitment to becoming a nature positive company, and the BC Parks Foundation's recently announced 25x25 initiative.

The Foundation's 25x25 initiative is inspiring people across BC to protect 25 important places by 2025, in support of Canada's goal of protecting 25% of land and sea in the next three years. In addition, 25x25 inspires people to collect 25 million nature observations, enjoy 25 parks or outdoor activities responsibly and safely, and spend a minimum of 2.5 hours a week outside getting healthy by nature.

Teck's goal to a become a nature positive company by 2030 means that, by 2030, Teck's conservation, protection and restoration of land and biodiversity will exceed the disturbance caused by its mining activities from a 2020 baseline. In doing so, Teck will conserve or rehabilitate at least three hectares for every one hectare affected by its mining activities. To learn more about Teck's nature positive goal, click here.

Honorable Josie Osborne, British Columbia Minister of Land, Water and Resource Stewardship and Minister Responsible for Fisheries -
"British Columbia has the greatest diversity of species, ecosystems and habitats of any of Canada's provinces or territories. Ensuring we conserve and protect these natural spaces has never been more important. Teck's partnership with BC Parks Foundation on the 25x25 Campaign is a concrete example of how we can all work together to protect more of B.C.'s natural beauty and encourage people to get outside and enjoy it now and in the future."

Jonathan Price, CEO, Teck -
"This collaboration with the BC Parks Foundation supports Teck's work to become a nature positive company by helping protect nature while also enhancing access to green space for people across British Columbia. Tackling the global challenge of nature loss requires all sectors to work together and we are excited to be partnering with the BC Parks Foundation on this important initiative."

Andrew Day, CEO, BC Parks Foundation -
"One thing that unites all British Columbians is our love of parks and nature. As a BC-based company, Teck is showing leadership globally through their nature positive commitment, and here at home through their groundbreaking support for our 25x25 goals. Teck's landmark gift will make a real positive impact in keeping BC beautiful, for everyone to enjoy, forever."
