Welcome to Grassy Mountain Alberta

Welcome to Grassy Mountain Alberta.

We created this platform because we believe informed action is the most powerful tool in safeguarding our province’s natural treasures. The Eastern Slopes of the Rocky Mountains are a critical source of clean water, rich agricultural lands, and home to diverse wildlife. The Grassy Mountain project, if approved, represents the first domino in what could become a devastating chain of environmental degradation across these irreplaceable landscapes.

What will you find here?

Our goal is to be a clear, reliable, and accessible source of information. Here, you’ll learn about:

• The profound ecological significance of the Eastern Slopes: Understand why this entire region, not just one peak, is so crucial to Alberta’s environment and economy.
• Why Grassy Mountain is the “mascot” of this issue: Discover how the Grassy Mountain project sets a dangerous precedent for future mining operations across the Eastern Slopes.
• The potential risks of open-pit coal mining: We’ll explore the documented threats to our watersheds, public health, agricultural sectors, and Indigenous cultural sites – risks that extend far beyond Grassy Mountain.
• Ways you can make a difference: We empower Albertans with the knowledge and tools to effectively voice their concerns to elected officials and decision-makers, pushing back against this potentially devastating trend.
• Updates and events: Stay current on news related to coal mining proposals and discover upcoming events that offer opportunities for deeper engagement and discussion on the broader threat to our Eastern Slopes.

We are an independent information resource, driven by a commitment to environmental stewardship and a sustainable future for all of Alberta. Our hope is that by providing comprehensive and clear information, we can encourage more Albertans to stand up for our land, water, and communities, preventing the fall of the next domino.

Thank you for visiting. We invite you to explore the site, learn more, and join us in advocating for a responsible approach to our province’s resources.
