Saved or Destroyed? You Decide.
(If you prefer not to receive further updates, respond to
this email with only the word REMOVE as the SUBJECT line.
All other responses will automatically send a message to
the Forest Service and the President.)
The fate of our forests is up for grabs.
Simply REPLY to this message now to let President Clinton
and the US Forest Service know that you want our forests
protected for the future.
Did you hear the news? This week, the US Forest Service
released a plan to protect 60 million acres of pristine
National Forests. Sadly, instead of saving our wild
forests, the Forest Service’s plan will continue to allow
logging and other damaging activities in these wild lands,
and exempts the Tongass National Forest in Alaska,
America’s largest National Forest, from any protection.
Last fall, President Clinton promised us a plan that would
save our remaining wild forests for future generations.
This is not that plan. Millions of acres of ancient and
untouched forests will be lost – unless we act now to get
the Forest Service back on track.
Please let the President and the Forest Service know today
that you want our unprotected wild forests saved for the
future.
Just reply to this email, and the letter below will
automatically be sent to the Forest Service and President
Clinton.
With the support of citizens like you, hundreds of
conservation, religious and recreation groups, and the
majority of the American public, we believe that President
Clinton will keep his commitment to leaving a lasting
legacy of wild forests.
Yet, powerful timber and mining companies are fighting hard
to fill the plan with enough loopholes to drive a logging
truck through! In the next two months we will send you
more frequent news and let you know of more ways you can
help the campaign.
Thank you! Together, we can save America’s wild forests.
For the Forests, For the Future,
Amy Luckey
