Restoring forests can provide a legacy of a healthy environment and clean water for our children and grandchildren. At the American Forest Congress, Forest Service chiefs shared an inspiring message about the importance of caring for our forests. #9AFC2025 https://t.co/fFhSR6U8sc
We’re not the only ones excited about old growth forests! Polling shows that 86% of Americans, regardless of demographics or ideology, support management that conserves old growth. People understand the benefits of these forests and want to preserve them. https://t.co/fbOayoKcoY
Great to join @SecVilsack this week to discuss @USDA investments in developing climate-smart commodities - products made using farming or forestry practices like #agroforestry that reduce greenhouse gas emissions or sequester carbon. #NaturalClimateSolutions@US_N4C
Thanks to our Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities, agriculture is well positioned to become the first major industry in our economy to move aggressively towards a net-zero future.
BREAKING: After years of rigorous research and testing, AFF’s innovative approach to measuring carbon impact is officially approved under @VerraStandards’ Verified Carbon Standard.

Thanks to @POTUS's Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the @forestservice has invested more than $100M in reforestation efforts this year - more than three times the investment in previous years. Our goal is to plant more than a billion trees over the next decade.
Thank you @SecVilsack! From reforestation to protecting old-growth forests, the path set out in this memorandum to the @forestservice will create a more resilient future for America's forests. @USDA
The @USDA announced its Climate-Smart Agriculture and Forestry Partnership Initiative today, another sign that @SecVilsack recognizes the important role private forest landowners play in slowing climate change. #Forests4Climate

"America’s forests have long been a natural climate solution hiding in plain sight. Today the U.S. House Agriculture Committee saw and seized this opportunity like never before," said @JadDaley on budget reconciliation bill https://t.co/dkjSlxRY92
Chief Christiansen is one of the greatest leaders we have ever had in the #ForestProud sector.
@AmericanForests will be forever grateful for your leadership @forestservice and in other roles. We look forward to continuing collaboration the remaining days ahead.🙏
Our own @JadDaley is getting ready to head to the virtual Capitol Hill today to talk to the Subcommittee on National Parks, Forests, and Public Lands about the REPLANT Act, a bill that will help bring our national forests back to life. #ReforestAmerica
The same approach for addressing catastrophic wildfires in the U.S. is not working.
It's time for bold, transformative policy action to reduce these risks. It's time for a paradigm shift. https://t.co/NgbJg8ROpN
A tax incentive to increase private forest carbon storage is a no-brainer solution in the fight against climate change. Want to learn more about #CarbonDioxideRemoval? Read this piece by @laurentcooper of @ForestCarbonMSU in @Freep https://t.co/Jrk63uqo6Y
