Action Alert: Ask The Board of Supervisors To Pass Resolution To Save Jackson Demonstration State Forest!

We need your help. The timber industry is going to turn out in force. We need to be louder. We need you to take action.

Take Action Today!

On Monday, November 15th, the Mendocino Board of Supervisors will vote on a resolution that calls for a reconsideration of the management objectives of the Jackson Demonstration State Forest. The resolution, sponsored by Supervisors Ted Williams and Dan Gjerde, recognizes that in this time defined by rapid and accelerating climate change the Jackson can and should be managed differently to sequester and store carbon in the forest, protect wildlife, safeguard rural communities against wildfire, and ensure clean water. This is BIG. You can read the full resolution here.

What the Board is asking for—that science guides forest management, not timber profit—seems obvious but Calfire has thumbed its nose at the community and has continued to plough forward with timber sales on the Jackson despite widespread opposition. The Board’s resolution won’t change management overnight but it will be an important chapter in the campaign to protect the Jackson State Forest from continued commercial timber harvest.

We need your help. The timber industry is going to turn out in force. We need to be louder. We need you to take action.
