"TORONTO, Oct. 23 /CNW/ - A series of Fall Walks aimed at getting families involved in protecting and conserving biodiversity in urban parklands and forest ecosystems was officially launched today as part of OPG Biodiversity 2010.
To mark the International Year of Biodiversity (2010), Ontario Power Generation (OPG) has partnered with Rouge Park to present Fall Biodiversity Walks - a series of themed walks with trained guides taking place every weekend, both Saturday and Sunday, at 9:30 a.m., noon and 2 p.m. through to November 28.
'At OPG, we believe that industry has a key role to play in conserving, sustaining and protecting nature and fighting climate change,' said Tom Mitchell, OPG's President and CEO. 'We're pleased to work with Rouge Park and all our partners to encourage awareness of the importance of biodiversity.'"
Ontario boasts over 80,000 km in trails. Whether you're in downtown Toronto or North of Superior, we have a trail for you. The Ontario Trails Council is a registered charity, led by volunteers who promote the development, management, use and conservation of Ontario's trails. You'll find everything from gentle walking trails to rock faces for climbing and water routes to canoe and kayak.
