In South Central Oregon, recent high-severity wildfires are creating a need for large-scale forest restoration. These fires make it nearly impossible for forests to regenerate themselves. Without our help, the ecosystems that depend on these forests suffer.

[American Forests @AmericanForests]

We’re so excited to announce that American Forests has just signed a 5-year agreement with the @NatlParkService to help restore threatened whitebark pine! https://t.co/pPhn2cvfee

This #LatinoConservationWeek I'm collecting seeds for thornforest restoration. Grateful that I'm able to contribute to conservation of this lovely ecosystem! @LCW_National @HispanicAccess @AmericanForests

@shannimcg Ugh. The worst! Screw this dude

[Liane ONeill @li_oneill]

An amazing partnership working with @ForestServiceNW toward our shared goals of restoring and supporting healthy, resilient forests 🌲🫶

[American Forests @AmericanForests]

Our new agreement w/@ForestServiceNW will provide an estimated 1.6 million seedlings toward OR and WA reforestation efforts. “We’re grateful for the opportunity to share resources... & ensure forests continue to provide vital ecosystem & societal benefits” https://t.co/pwwdCYhOHU

In the 90s when I was a kid you didn't see women represented in science. So amazing to see @EPansing talking about #whitebarkpine with the next generation of female leaders @girlscouts #SavetheWhitebarkPine

[Kara Ball @KaraUBall]

This is the way it should be - girl leaders lining up to get autographs from their women scientist heroes! ⁦@GSMWcouncil⁩ Girl Scouts getting autographs from ⁦@AmericanForests⁩ scientist ⁦@EPansing⁩ who is working to #SaveTheWhitebarkPine. ⁦@girlscouts⁩

when everyone is watching a show about a zombie fungus but not enough people are talking about how white pine blister rust fungus is wiping out whitebark pine across the west #TheLastOfUs #SaveTheWhitebarkPine

This fight to conserve whitebark pine is not over, not by a longshot. We have science-based solutions on our side. But we still need help to build up the resources needed to restore and protect this species. Visit https://t.co/zraEKsXHkU or follow American Forests to learn more.

Whitebark pine, an iconic high-alpine tree that wildlife and humans alike depend on, was just listed as Threatened, following the massive die-off of over 325M trees #SavetheWhitebarkPine

[American Forests @AmericanForests]

🚨BREAKING🚨 The whitebark pine was just listed under the Endangered Species Act. Over the next month we'll be covering the cause of its decline, the solutions and what you can do to help #SaveTheWhitebarkPine. Learn more: https://t.co/LF0qYkkZKM #WhitebarkWednesday

[Liane ONeill @li_oneill]

My #whitebarkstory continues on today as part of my work with @AmericanForests. We're kicking off a campaign to tell the story of whitebark pine, the threats it faces, and the hope for restoration made possible by multi-decade science-driven collabs.

Looking for a photographer in the Bronx area for event coverage. Any reccos?

Today @AmericanForests is kicking off a momentous project that will help expand tree canopies in Detroit, bringing the benefits of urban trees (cooler temps, better air quality, and improved quality of life) to communities with tree deficits.

[American Forests @AmericanForests]

Today along with @CityofDetroit, @DTE_Energy, @DETFutureCity, @GreeningDetroit and more, we're launching the Detroit Tree Equity Partnership to plant more than 75k trees, employ over 300 Detroit residents and invest $30 million in Detroit neighborhoods https://t.co/kROMTjfyFv

There are currently 18 wildfires burning across Oregon. So what will the landscape look like when the blazes are extinguished? Join @AmericanForests 9/20 at 1:30 EST for #ClimateWeekNYC to learn how leaders are supporting resilient forest restoration.
