Natural History Wanderings

from the Sierra Club

The Sierra Club just filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Forest Service for proposing unprecedented logging in Giant Sequoia National Monument. The proposed projects would log tens of thousands of trees from over 13,000 acres of public forests under the guise of post-fire restoration. At stake is the well-being of an ancient and massive tree species: giant sequoias, the largest tree on Earth with a lifespan of over 3,000 years

See what our lawsuit alleges and how we’re protecting the endangered species who call these trees home.
