Liz Barratt-Brown

Liz Barratt-Brown has worked with NRDC's International Program for the last 15 years. When Liz first came to NRDC, she worked with Canadians to stem acid rain. More recently, she has worked to protect its ancient forests - from the coastal rainforests of British Columbia to the Boreal forest that circles the top of the planet. Right now she is working on the Alberta tar sands, an area of the boreal forest that is being torn up to produce oil to feed our relentless thirst for our cars, airplanes and trucks.
