TransCoastal Adaptations has partnered with the Stewardship Centre for British Columbia to establish Green Shores® in the Maritimes. Green Shores incentivizes and facilitates natural shoreline habitat creation through a credit and rating system that guides homeowners and developers in the process of adapting shorelines to mitigate erosion, create wildlife habitat, improve water quality, and restore natural sediment processes.

In addition to providing credit and rating guides, Green Shores trains professionals with Green Shores training, who can then help landowners design and certify Green Shores shoreline projects. Local government groups can also facilitate the uptake of Green Shores in communities through the Green Shores for Local Government program.
