Thank goodness, the Biden Administration has rolled back the terrible Trump destruction of the Tongas National Forest by stopping the cutting of old growth trees and stopping miles of logging roads. We are experiencing terrible climate change now, not in the future, and this forest is a key player in pulling C02 from the atmosphere:
"Scientists have identified logging in Tongass as a future driver of planetary warming, because its ancient trees — many of which are at least three centuries old — absorb at least 8 percent of the carbon stored in the entire Lower 48 states’ forests combined."
The former administration, the Republican Party, and the logging industry discredits themselves when they so defile one of the oldest and most meaningful natural treasures of the planet.
Thank you, Mr. President.
