Friend,
The planet's forests are disappearing at an alarming rate.
Since 1990, the world has lost 420 million hectares of forest.[1] That's the equivalent of more than a million square miles of forest.
We're campaigning to protect forests for current and future generations of people and wildlife. And you can help, Friend. By donating to our 2022 Fiscal Year-End Drive, you'll ensure we have the necessary resources to continue defending forests in the years to come.
Donate by midnight, June 30, and have your impact doubled: All gifts will be matched by generous donors, dollar for dollar, up to $25,000 nationwide.

For the sake of the climate, creatures and communities, it's critical that we conserve the planet's forests. We're doing that by combining grassroots organizing, professional research and tough-minded advocacy. Here are just a few of our projects that your gift will support:
* Petitioning Home Depot to preserve the boreal forest. The Canadian boreal forest is the largest remaining primary forest on the planet, home to threatened boreal caribou and billions of birds. To help stop logging in the forest, we're urging Home Depot not to harvest its wood products from critical habitat in the boreal.
* Calling on President Biden to cancel the Uinta Basin Railway. Construction of the Uinta Basin Railway, a railway designed to carry oil across the United States, would destroy thousands of acres of protected forest in Ashley National Forest and increase fossil fuel emissions. With the help of environmentalists like you, we're delivering thousands of messages to President Biden, urging him to reject the proposal.
* Restoring protections for the Tongass National Forest. Home to trees older than the United States, the Tongass National Forest in Alaska is the world's largest intact temperate rainforest. After the Trump administration moved to open wild areas within this ancient forest to logging, we filed suit to stop it. Now, we're urging Congress to reinstate permanent protections.
* And much, much more.
All of these campaigns and more are made possible by people like you, who ensure we have the necessary resources to address the most pressing threats to our forests. And right now, you have an opportunity to double your impact by making a matched gift.
Donate today to help us meet our $50,000 2022 Fiscal Year-End Drive goal, and keep our work to protect forests going strong in the year ahead.
