John,
There are only 72 hours left to stop President Trump’s destructive plan threatening 9.2 million acres of America’s largest national forest and you haven’t submitted a public comment yet.
We have to stop President Trump and the U.S. Forest Service from allowing development and logging of ancient, old-growth trees—some that have been standing for 800 years—in an untouched area of Alaska’s Tongass National Forest. Comments from friends of wildlife like you must be received by the U.S. Forest Service by December 17th, and we’re concerned that we don’t have enough support to save this irreplaceable wilderness.
Will you speak out to save pristine forest habitat by sending a message to President Trump and the U.S. Forest Service?
According to the U.S. Forest Service, roadless areas provide habitat for more than 200 threatened and endangered species, including grizzly bears, rare wolves, salmon, and lynx. They also support 1,930 sensitive plant and animal species.
Please help us stop roads and logging from harming America’s largest national forest and the wildlife that call it home. We have only 3 days left to convince the U.S. Forest Service and every voice is needed.
More than 700 square miles of the densely forested Tongass has already been clear cut by commercial loggers, and the adjacent acres are scarred by over 4,500 miles of roads. More logging and more roads in this ancient forest of western hemlock, western red cedar, Alaska cedar, and Sitka spruce trees will lead to the decline and possibly the extinction of rare species.
With less than 3 days until the public comment period ends, we’re running out of time to oppose this potentially deadly plan. We need you to join our fight to save the Tongass National Forest and the wildlife that live there.
Send a message voicing your support for keeping our largest national forest roadless before time runs out.
