John, our friends at the Climate Forests Campaign brought this
urgent issue to our attention, and we wanted to be sure to share it with
you:

Mature and old-growth forests on federal lands are essential for capturing
carbon and fighting pollution — but right now, 370,000 acres of them are
slated to be logged. If enough people speak up, these forests could be
permanently protected from logging by the Bureau of Land Management.

Here’s where you come in: the Bureau of Land Management is taking public
comments on a proposed rulemaking process that could finally protect our
mature and old-growth forests — but only until June 20th.

[ [link removed] ]Will you act now and urge the Bureau of Land Management to permanently
protect federal mature and old-growth forests from logging? To make this
action even easier, we’ve gone ahead and drafted a comment for you:

John, older
forests and trees are crucial for addressing the climate crisis.

These trees store the vast majority of the above-ground carbon in a
forest. In addition, older forests and trees are far more adaptable to the
impacts of climate change, especially compared to industrial tree
plantations.

Hundreds of millions of acres of land are controlled by the federal
government. Fostering ecosystem resilience and climate resilience on that
land is an essential step in tackling the climate crisis — and protecting
these old forests must be a top priority for the Bureau of Land
Management.

The good news is — after a nearly 50-year fight — the Biden administration
recently launched a rulemaking process that has the potential to protect
up to 112 million acres of mature and old-growth trees and forests on
federal lands from logging, but it will only become reality if enough of
us submit public comments to defend these forests.

Right now, climate advocates like us have a once-in-a-generation
opportunity to call for permanent protections for federal mature and
old-growth forests from logging.

We need to work together and be LOUDER than the logging industry to ensure
these trees and forests are safeguarded for future generations, not sold
and cut for profit:

June 20.
