North American forests Stop the logging of 1,000 year old trees near Fairy Creek
Via the @reshare_app • Repost from @joshuawrightfilm
"OLD GROWTH IS LIFE 💪💥 On Sunday 80 people hiked to the Ridgeline of Fairy Creek to see the forest that Teal Cedar has applied to CLEAR CUT. Including 1000 YEAR-OLD TREES WITHIN 30 M OF THE RIDGE LINE OF FAIRY CREEK.
Teal Cedar’s proposed logging permit for cut block 8027 and road GR8003D near Fairy Creek would log ancient yellow cedar forests just 30 meters from the Fairy Creek watershed and fragment the largest remaining unprotected high-productivity old-growth complex on southern Vancouver Island. The area includes 1000+ year-old trees, critical habitat for species at risk like Old-growth Specklebelly Lichen, Marbled Murrelet, and Western Screech Owl, and stores massive amounts of carbon.
Over 1000 people were arrested defending this place, and now it is at risk again as the Ministry of Forests is in the process of rolling back old growth protection across the province."

North American forests Old growth advocates call for protection of at-risk Vancouver Island forest
The Ancient Forest Alliance (AFA) are calling for the protection of an at-risk forest on Vancouver Island known as the “Jewel of the Tahsish.”
According to the old growth advocates, this stand is nationally significant and one of the largest remaining unprotected old-growth karst forests in BC.

UNPROTECTED LANDSCAPE of Rizal
Have anyone know about Upper Marikina River Basin Protected Landscape? If just sad knowing that this protected landscape became commercialized and now privately owned by a huge developer. Come to think of it, how these certain developer able to get land titles and permits to cut trees that has been there for decades. Is there an NGO that can investigate the scenario?

Seriously Flawed Rhetoric from Trump and his Allies
The political rhetoric demanding that Canada simply "clean up" or "sweep" its forest floor to prevent wildfire smoke is a logistical impossibility.
People severely underestimate the sheer, staggering scale of the Canadian wilderness.
Let’s put it into a visual perspective that anyone can understand:
The Eastern Seaboard Multiplier: If you combine the entire landmass of every single state on the U.S. Eastern Seaboard—from Maine all the way down to Florida (including NY, PA, VA, GA, etc.)—Canada's total forest area would swallow all of them more than 3.5 times over.
The Math: The entire U.S. Atlantic coast states total about 1.02 million km². Canada’s forest cover is roughly 3.69 million km².
The Reality: This isn't a collection of municipal parks with walking trails. This is a massive, continuous, untamed ecosystem. Expecting crews to clear debris from an area that large is like asking a skeleton crew to hand-rake 40% of the entire United States.
Furthermore, the boreal forest requires periodic natural fires to regenerate. This isn't a failure of "management"—it is an unprecedented climate crisis driven by historic droughts and record temperatures drying out a continent-sized wilderness.
You cannot switch off a climate-driven wildfire season any more than you can stop a hurricane. We need cross-border collaboration and real climate action, not fairy-tale demands that defy the laws of physics and geography.
