Squamish-based adventure writer and journalist Arno Kopecky will share stories and images from his year-long journey through the Amazon and Andes, exploring the impact of Canada's latest free trade agreements in South America. The presentation will conclude with a discussion of some of the parallels Arno found between what he witnessed in the Amazon and current events in another massive, isolated, imperiled woodland, BC’s own Great Bear Rainforest.
