Where Nature Lives

Environmental Speaker Series

Brought to you by:
College of the Environment, The Foundation for WWU & Alumni
In Academic West 204 and on Zoom

This talk outlines the ways in which the development of Vancouver, BC in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries tied the city to the mountainous landscape immediately to its north. Considering episodes from resource extraction and outdoor recreation, it shows how urban interest in local mountains served to co-produce both the city and what city boosters have labelled ‘Where Nature Lives.’
