Honored to be featured on this PBS show with @lauraflanders.org about our work @dogwoodalliance to seed an equitable transition from logging to protection in the worlds largest wood producing region- the U.S. South. The best climate solutions are community driven and nature based!
According to some government leaders, logging is bringing economic gains to rural America. But in places like the Carolinas, frontline communities are telling a different story, and have solutions: bit.ly/3CS9RnZ @dogwoodalliance.org @dannasmith.bsky.social #BrittonsNeck #ClimateChange

A decade of taxpayer money—gone. A community left with #pollution. #Forests destroyed. But today, we celebrate: Enviva’s #Mississippi wood pellet mill is shutting down! After years of public outrage & bankruptcy, they’re retreating. https://buff.ly/4hLsAjY

Before leaving office, the Biden admin backed out of plans to protect #OldGrowth forests. But the #climate crisis won’t wait, and neither can we. We can’t log our way out of this. It’s time to double down.

Wetlands are home to 40% of all known plant and animal species—including rare and endangered #wildlife that can’t survive anywhere else. 💙 From vibrant #birds to delicate aquatic plants, these ecosystems are irreplaceable.
