Annisa,
The Trump administration has launched a reckless assault on America's federal forests, ordering the mass destruction of 280 million acres of public land for timber production. This includes trees that are considered deeply important for their ecosystems.
This catastrophic decision benefits corporations at the expense of our environment, and it also blatantly disregards the Endangered Species Act. In the process, it threatens the survival of countless vulnerable animals, including grizzly bears, spotted owls, and wild salmon.
Under this executive order, the U.S. Forest Service and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management are being pressured to increase logging quotas and bypass critical environmental protections.
The destruction of these forests will accelerate climate change by eliminating vital carbon sinks. On top of that, it will also pollute rivers and water supplies, degrade recreational areas, and push endangered species closer to extinction. And, this will worsen wildfires by drying out forest floors, eliminating older and more fire-resistant trees, and disrupting ecosystems.
To make matters worse, Trump has appointed a former timber executive to lead the Forest Service, ensuring that corporate profits will come before conservation.
Sign the petition to help us demand that the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management resist these unlawful orders, uphold their legal obligations under the Endangered Species Act, and put the preservation of our nation's forests before corporate greed.
