Tell President Biden: Stop the logging of our most important trees
Our national forests should be places of conservation, not destruction.
Flat Country is off the chopping block
The Flat Country logging sale in the Willamette National Forest, which would have logged over 2,000 acres of mature and old-growth forests, has been withdrawn.
The Flat Country logging sale in the Willamette National Forest, which would have logged over 2,000 acres of mature and old-growth trees, was recently withdrawn by the Forest Service. This is a victory for our forests, one that would not have been possible without President Biden’s Earth Day Executive Order directing agencies to protect mature and old-growth trees and forests.
The fight to protect important forestlands like Flat Country isn’t over. The Forest Service plans to revise the sale and will roll out a new version in the spring. Their new plan will almost certainly be an improvement on the old proposal, but whether they will continue to pursue logging in mature and old-growth forests remains to be seen.
