Nelson Aggregate’s proposed quarry expansion threatens the Mount Nemo plateau and everyone who depends on it. Help us stop the destruction.
It’s been a long time coming, but the Ontario Land Tribunal is just around the corner. There’s only a little time left to help us defend Mount Nemo.
Here’s what’s happening in Burlington
Nelson Aggregates quarry has long destroyed over 500 acres of our beloved escarpment. Now, they’re trying to get their hands on over 100 more! Located within the UNESCO world biosphere reserve, this Niagara Escarpment land is irreplaceable. Here’s a bird’s eye view of what’s happening in Burlington’s backyard.
With the health of the natural environment and public safety at risk, approving this expansion will be devastating to the community and all other species that depend on the ecological integrity of rural Burlington. We’re doing everything we can to protect Mount Nemo and the community who calls it home, but we need your help.
