A Holiday Wish for Our Forests.

Forest rules make the holiday wish list

December 15, 2010

The Obama administration is developing sweeping new rules that will determine the fate of America's national forests. With an ad campaign and 20,000 greeting cards on their way to Washington, conservation groups are making a holiday push for a strong plan to protect the forests.

Take action to protect these lands from threats posed by logging, energy development and climate change.
