Standing Trees is a community of wildland activists working to protect and restore forests on New England's public lands.
Busy in DC this week advocating for commonsense policy for #publiclands & #climateforests. Thx to New Englanders @balint.house.gov, @welch.senate.gov & @shaheen.senate.gov for the interest in standing strong for our invaluable public forests 🌳 ✊

Looking for something to be excited about? Join us Thursday evening to get the details on the Wildlands Act, a visionary bill that will protect core VT public lands for climate mitigation, flood resilience, wild nature, and our collective wellbeing

We had our federal court debut yesterday, and we feel more determined than ever! With the help of @courchez.bsky.social and Vermont Law students, we sued the USFS to stop two destructive logging projects in the White Mountains. More on the suit here: www.standingtrees.org/post/release...

We couldn't be more excited to be supporting the VT Wildlands Act—a visionary bill that would reduce flood risks, mitigate climate change and extreme weather, and nurture our native ecosystems, all at almost no cost to taxpayers

If the Telephone Gap project is approved, there will be logging on all sides of the Cape, an exceptional stretch of old growth and Vermont's only Research Natural Area. We visited this area Saturday, and it's clear we need to let the surrounding public forests grow older, not cut them down.

Wow! On a cold, snowy Saturday 90 people from Vermont and the region sent a loud and clear message at the GMNF HQ that our #climateforests at Telephone Gap are #worthmorestanding!

Now is the time for @sanders.senate.gov and @balint.house.gov to be heroes and cancel this reckless logging project!
