Earth Day 2025 – The Wetland Project Returns!

April 8, 2025

This Earth Day (Tuesday, April 22) CJSR is proud to once again join stations across Canada and the world in broadcasting the 9th Annual Wetland Project Soundscape. Tune in all day long at 88.5FM or online at cjsr.streamon.fm for a 24-hour natural soundscape recording synced to our local time. 

Artists Brady Marks and Mark Timmings invite you to fill your home, work, vehicle and leisure spaces with the resonant sounds of birds, frogs, insects and airplanes! Immerse yourself in the vitality of the 24-hour circadian rhythm of the ṮEḴTEḴSEN marsh in unsurrendered W̱SÁNEĆ territory (Saturna Island, British Columbia). The broadcast engages its audience in real time and stimulates a powerful re‑engagement with the living environment. At a time when the world is in great turmoil, slow radio offers us a life-affirming space to reflect on a more lucid and caring future.
