Social Media Rules of Engagement

EARTHQUEST (Canada) for the Environment is an environmental organization established in 1997, specializing in botanical surveys, Species at Risk (SAR), Environmental Impact Studies and consultation for First Nations.  The EARTHQUEST Biological Field School was opened in 2004 as a private vocational institution that provides skill upgrades to professionals and individuals in the environmental industry.

This blog site, our Facebook and Twitter account are used to post activities, events, courses, programs and projects that we are involved with.  If you wish to leave a comment, or contribute to an article here are the rules of engagement for participating on these media platforms:

1.  Contributors are encouraged to post their comments, questions, thoughts and observations politely;

2.  We appreciate information regarding SAR flora, but please do not share them on this site.  We adhere to the data sensitivity policies of the Natural Heritage Information Centre (NHIC).  If you choose to submit your rare plant or SAR observations or records to the NHIC and/or EARTHQUEST please do submit them discretely in a confidential email;

3.  EARTHQUEST does post jobs, internships and volunteer-related opportunities, but does not endorse petitions.  The opinions and views expressed on these postings belong solely to those organizations or individuals posting them and do not reflect those of EARTHQUEST;

4.  Please exercise civil discourse when posting material.  Posts containing personal attacks, profanity, or any negative material will be removed and reported
