Dear Jack, The election results make it clear: we must remain vigilant to protect and defend the redwood forests of California’s Santa Cruz mountains.
However, there is hope. Thanks to recent victories, such as the passage of local and statewide conservation measures in California, we’ve taken a major step forward in protecting these vital forests. These initiatives will provide crucial resources to safeguard water and wildfire resilience and provide critical investments in protecting our natural resources.
These successes highlight the deep commitment of our community to environmental stewardship and resilience. But with an incoming administration signaling its intention to roll back protections, the fight for our forests is far from over. We need your voice now. Add your name to Sempervirens Fund’s petition to protect these magnificent forests during this critical time. | The redwoods are our greatest allies in the fight against climate change. Old-growth redwoods capture, store, and convert more carbon dioxide into breathable oxygen than any other tree on Earth. Yet, with government forces likely to undo the progress we’ve made, the trees need us as much as we need them.
For nearly 125 years, Sempervirens Fund has stood tall and resilient, defending redwoods through all types of administrations. With your support, we can continue to safeguard these forests, preserve biodiversity, and develop new ways to ensure their health and resilience. Together, we can: - Acquire and permanently protect and connect redwood forests.
- Steward and restore vast expanses of these vital lands.
- Advance techniques to help redwoods become healthier and more resilient.
