Clearcutting the Tongass National Forest is Dead Wrong
In the Tongass rainforest, the Forest Service has clung to the old-school logging of some of the most biologically rich, scenically stunning and carbon-dense forests on Earth.
Wyoming Grazing Allotments in Prime Wolf and Grizzly Habitat
Take a moment to comment against plans for the future of the massive grazing allotment complex, which is also prime wolf and grizzly habitat. The complex spans the entire Bridger-Teton National Forest from north to south, spills into the Gros Ventre River drainage, and is an environmental disaster.
Tweetstorm for the Profanity Peak Pack Wolves
