What do these recent actions on public lands have in common?
The Orwellian “Fix Our Forests” Act. Trump’s executive order to expand American timber production. The rescinding of the Roadless Rule. “Emergency” designation across 112 million acres—59% of National Forests.
All of them—unprecedented in scale and scope—push industrial logging under the pretense of “protecting” communities and forests from wildfire. (And, yes, despite bad faith denials, so-called “fuel reduction” meets the dictionary definition of logging, i.e. “to cut trees into logs”; the contractors hired to do the jobs are “logging contractors”; even project maps clearly label this as “logging.”)
