About the Eco Awareness Society

Our Mission

The Eco Awareness Society is a non-profit organization whose mission is to uphold these principles: that “a subset of society should not be forced to bear the cost of a benefit for the larger society”, that a landowner’s right to full use and enjoyment of their property be upheld and not taken or hindered for public or private use or development, without just compensation, and that any policy or development with regard to the environment and landscape of Nova Scotia be shown to be effective and based on the principals of environmental sustainability and stewardship of our precious resources.*

*Based on the Canadian Charter of Rights and the Fifth Amendment, U.S. Constitution
