Save our Roadless Forests

Since 2001, the Roadless Rule has protected wild, undeveloped forests for future generations. #SaveRoadless

[The Wilderness Society 🌳 @Wilderness]

Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians supported SE Alaska Tribes in their request to @POTUS to restore roadless protections for the Tongass NF. We’re proud to stand in solidarity with ATNI and the SE Alaska Tribes in the fight to #ProtectTheTongass.

Western science is confirming what SE Alaska tribal nations have always known— protecting dense forests is key to our survival. Great new piece in @adndotcom by Joel Jackson, Tribal President of Organized Village of Kake

Did you know: Research has shown that trees release antibacterial and antifungal phytoncides into the air, possibly boosting the immune system.
So let's keep our ancient trees standing! #ProtectTheTongass #SaveRoadless https://t.co/XswWXibGi0

New research reaffirms the global importance of Southeast Alaska’s temperate rainforest for combating the effects of #climatechange — the Tongass National Forest holds 44% of all carbon stored by U.S. national forests. https://t.co/aHWHl6Awar #ProtectTheTongass #SaveRoadless

Please take action this #EarthDay and #ProtectTheTongass under U.S. climate commitments. @Gina_McCarthy @alizaidi46 @ClimateEnvoy #SaveRoadless

New study: The Tongass National Forest—America’s largest—holds 44% of all carbon stored by United States’ national forests. #SaveRoadless #ProtectTongass https://t.co/9nhGN4vzrn

[Alaska Salmon Habitat Information Program (SHIP) @ak_salmon]

Not only is the Tongass a habitat-rich salmon forest, it's also an enormous, beautifully-functioning carbon sink.

50 conservation, fishing, & outdoor recreation groups, call on @POTUS to #ProtectTheTongass and #SaveRoadless under U.S. climate commitments to be released on Earth Day. RT if you believe now is the time to act! @Gina_McCarthy @alizaidi46 @ClimateEnvoy

So much carbon in the Tongass! Let's keep it there.

“There’s no magic wand. We don’t have a big vacuum cleaner we can use to suck carbon out of the atmosphere and store it safely. Forests are doing that for us.”

This is why @POTUS must #SaveRoadless & #ProtectTheTongass under US #ParisAgreement commitments https://t.co/3CciSKIuSC

[SalmonState @SalmonStateAK]

The Tongass stores 44% of all carbon in national forests. As we work to address climate change, it doesn't make sense to clearcut some of the world's last remaining temperate rainforest old growth. #SaveRoadless @Gina_McCarthy @alizaidi46 @ClimateEnvoy https://t.co/VjAH5HOMeL

[Save our Roadless Forests @SaveRoadless]

New research shows Tongass rainforest global importance to combating climate change. Researchers, Tribes, and environmental organizations urge @POTUS to protect Tongass as part of U.S. climate commitments. #SaveRoadless #ProtectTheTongass https://t.co/hie5WkGVU9

[Save our Roadless Forests @SaveRoadless]

BREAKING: new research quantifies importance of the Tongass to @POTUS U.S. climate goals. Tongass is one of the last intact temperate rainforests in the world & holds 44% of all the carbon in the entire U.S. forest system.

Tongass National Forest is the largest intact temperate rainforest on 🌎. It stores more carbon than ANY national forest. It's America's Amazon. It's the climate forest. It's the salmon forest.

We must protect America's rainforest forever: https://t.co/mQSXiRT246 #SaveRoadless

[Sitka Conservation Society @Sitka_Wild]

"The #Tongass serves as a massive carbon sink and is of national importance. It supports the old-growth red cedar, Sitka black-tailed deer and salmon that the Alaska Native tribes of the region rely on." #ProtecttheTongass #SaveRoadless
