Protecting Ontario's Greenbelt

What's 1.8 million acres and runs through one of the most populated parts of Canada? That would be Ontario's world renowned Greenbelt. 

Protecting green space, farmland, rivers, streams and environmentally-sensitive areas, the Greenbelt has become a rallying cry for preserving our fragile land from development. And, it's there because of Environmental Defence's work.

The Campaign
 
As Ontario's Greenbelt celebrates its 7th birthday, we're working to grow the Greenbelt to communities that want to protect their green space. We've had great success so far, working with our partners in the Ontario Greenbelt Alliance. Communities like Toronto, Mississauga, Oakville and Guelph have all committed to growing the Greenbelt.
