Logging would be halted in the last core areas of forest biodiversity:  Ancient Forests, roadless areas, riparian zones, and over 100 other specially named forest areas throughout the U.S.  Forests outside of the core areas would be restored to their original native biodiversity through active and passive measures.  A strictly limited amount of ecologically compatible logging would be allowed outside of the core areas.  The Act to Save America’s Forests includes a new section which will protect the Giant Sequoia National Monument. The Act is endorsed by over 600 eminent scientists, including E.O. Wilson, Stuart Pimm, Peter Raven, and Jane Goodall.  Nearly one-fourth of the members of Congress have cosponsored the bill, 135 Representatives, and 6 Senators. Passing the Act to Save America's Forests will restore our national Forests into biologically diverse, natural forests.  The Forest Service will be transformed into the world's largest forest ecosystem protection and restoration organization.  This will be a beacon to the world, setting an entirely new standard of what is possible in protecting and restoring ecosystems. You can make an important difference in achieving this goal by writing your 1 Representative and 2 Senators.  Please urge them to Cosponsor and Pass the Act to Save America's Forests.
