We are a 501c3 working to protect our public forested lands from deforestation in NJ & throughout the NE. Help us to protect & preserve our public forests #StopTheChopNJ #stopdeforestation

“Forests also play a critical role in mitigating climate change because they act as carbon sinks—soaking up carbon dioxide that would otherwise be free in the atmosphere and contributing to ongoing changes in climate patterns.” Help us protect our forests nationwide & here in #NJ

Forest Service’s 'solutions'? Logging, burning… and more smoke.

Say no to H.R. 471, the recently reintroduced "Fix Our Forests" Act, that increases logging and ignores real wildfire protection measures. Support H.R. 582 instead - it protects communities and forests with proven strategies.

Wetlands cover around 6% of the Earth’s land surface & are vital for human health, food supply & livelihoods. Yet these unique ecosystems are vanishing three times faster than forests.

Citizens must work w/local elected officials to protect our natural resources as the U.S. Forest Service is not doing a good job in protecting our natural resources with the future in mind. Help our group as locally there are those who are pushing for logging in #NJ-most densely populated state!
US Forest Service failing to protect old growth trees from logging, critics say
