Product Details
With the arrival of the railways in 1883 and the newcomers to Alberta, now totaling over 4 million people, humanity has left its mark on the prairies, forests and waterways. Over the last 130 years people introduced a vast array of land uses, creating extensive land disturbance across the province.

With the evolution of Alberta’s society, industrialization, economy and environment there was a parallel transformation of land conservation and reclamation policies and practices. This grew in importance to the general public, landowners, politicians, bureaucrats, academics, workers and industries.

Alberta’s story of advancement in land reclamation over the last five decades deserves telling.
Contributions and controversies of this vital interdisciplinary field are largely unknown to the public.
We acknowledge the role of academics, consultants, professionals, industrialists, educational institutions, regulators, politicians and government bodies involved in the evolution of land reclamation. This showcase offers information from a few of these groups, sharing a sample of perspectives arising from decades of study and practice; experiences, lessons learned, milestones, all of which are foundational to evolution of reclamation in Alberta.

We humbly offer this introductory contribution, in support of public awareness, providing relatively easy to understand visual presentations.
