Today, most of our population growth is being accommodated at the fringes of suburban cities in a sprawling, low-density fashion. These new communities are highly consumptive of rural and agricultural lands, energy, water and material resources, and create traffic congestion. As a result, they also emit damaging amounts of toxins and greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. SUDA gathers and disseminates information about sustainable city-building, undertakes practical research as funds allow, and communicates with key stakeholders about opportunities and benefits of building environmentally-responsible communities.

The slaughter of wildlife is reaching unprecedented levels. Poaching of wildlife and elephants and rhino in particular, has escalated as a result of the rising demand for ivory in Asia and the Middle East. Some experts estimate that as many as 35,000 elephants a year are being slaughtered, 10% of Africa’s elephant population each year. Big Life Canada Foundation was established to combat the poaching of elephants and wildlife and to protect their habitat. Its current geographic scope is the Amboseli ecosystem, which straddles the Kenyan-Tanzania border, and is comprised of approximately 2 million acres. Big Life Foundation Canada will focus on establishing anti-poaching camps in the highest needed areas of Kenya & Tanzania.
