The Cascadia Bioregion is the lush, forested region extending from northern California to southcentral Alaska. Cascadia Wildlands works within this bioregion (and the U.S.) where immediate threats to wild places are highest. Currently, these places are Oregon and southeast Alaska.

Decades of aggressive clearcutting have destroyed more than 80% of the original old-growth forests that once blanketed the Northwest. And year after year, our government plans and subsidizes public forest destruction for the profit of private timber companies.

Cascadia Wildlands uses a combination of education, organizing, outreach, agitation, litigation, advocacy, and collaboration to defend wild places and promote sustainable, restoration-based forestry. We focus on specific projects and campaigns that achieve tangible, on-the-ground results. When it comes to protecting Cascadia, we deliver.

    In early February, the Fossil Free Eugene Campaign scored a victory when the Eugene City Council rejected NW Natural’s proposal to renew a franchise agreement allowing the utility to run its pipes under city rights of way. Backed by the campaign, “the city was trying to incorporate our climate action and carbon reduction goals into their franchise agreement with Northwest Natural,” said Dylan Plummer, grassroots organizer of Cascadia Wildlands. This renewal would have locked the city into another 20-year contract. “What was at stake was the legitimacy of our city’s climate recovery goals,” Plummer said. “Our coalition was directly responsible for providing our city councilors with the support needed to take Northwest Natural to task,” said Plummer. Despite this victory, activists like Okotie-Oyekan and Plummer say much work remains. ... See MoreSee Less

    Speak up to get Climate Advocates on Oregon's Powe Speak up to get Climate Advocates on Oregon's Powerful Board of Forestry! We have a secret climate change weapon: Our forests! But not if Big Timber logs them for short-term gains. The Board of Forestry can support climate-smart forestry if we get the right people on it. Ask your State Senator to vote “yes” on the new candidates. #welikeitwild #betterboardofforestry

    Post-fire logging harms drinking water quality and Post-fire logging harms drinking water quality and greatly impacts watersheds and habitat. 

Studies by top experts at Oregon State University have shown that post-fire logging can magnify the run off into streams by up to 28 times. Logging a fire-burned landscape can increase sedimentation in watersheds by 2,800%, harm salmon and trout and increase costs for communities who rely on clean and abundant drinking water. 

That is why Cascadia Wildlands stands against the 7,000+ acre Archie creek timber sale in the North Umpqua watershed. Watch our new video about the proposed project and take action to stop public lands post-fire logging in the North Umpqua watershed.
