Feeling Nostalgic For a Better Future


By Bob Ferris OK, I am feeling nostalgic today.  In part it is because of the treasures (or detritus) I find on my desk.  To wit:    1—An old Herder’s folding knife I bought more than 50 years ago from the Eddie Bauer catalog when they were actually outfitters.   2—A copy of Animal Heroes … Continue reading Feeling Nostalgic For a Better Future

    The timber industry is doing everything it can to muddy the science around forests, climate change and wildfire because they don't want Oregonians to find out the truth about what logging is doing to our climate and our communities. Our forests are some of the best at drawing down and storing carbon in the world. They are naturally fire resilient, and essential to protecting and filtering drinking water. Yet all of these critical services that forests in the Pacific Northwest provide are directly undermined by industrial logging.It's time that we valued our forests for more than just their timber value. ...

    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.
