Siuslaw Forest Action
2024 will see the first major change to the Northwest Forest Plan (NWFP) for forests managed by the Forest Service. Sometime this summer a Draft Amendment proposal will be issued. Don’t think for a moment that the huge mill owners won’t have their sights on the Siuslaw’s big trees. We must prevent an amendment that opens the door to cutting native coastal forest. Please go to Siuslaw Action Page and learn what you can do. We have guidance how you can document the natural forest stands in the Siuslaw National Forest.

Communities & the Living Ocean
Protecting & preserving communities in the era of climate change.
Coastal communities depend on the beauty of the coast and the bounty of the ocean. We are working to protect the ocean by conserving coastal resources, supporting the state's marine research program for near shore reserves and educating about the impact of the climate crisis on the oceans of the world.
Speaking Truth to Power
“climate change beyond the next few decades will depend primarily on the amount of greenhouse (heat-trapping) gases emitted globally and on the remaining uncertainty in the sensitivity of Earth’s climate to those emissions (very high confidence). With significant reductions in the emissions of greenhouse gases, the global annually averaged temperature rise could be limited to 3.6°F (2°C) or less. Without major reductions in these emissions, the increase in annual average global temperatures relative to preindustrial times could reach 9°F (5°C) or more by the end of this century (high confidence).”
