"In an unprecedented step to preserve and maintain the most carbon-rich elements of U.S. forests in an era of climate change, President Joe Biden’s administration last week proposed to end commercially driven logging of old-growth trees in National Forests.

Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack, who oversees the U.S. Forest Service, issued a Notice of Intent to amend the land management plans of all 128 National Forests to prioritize old-growth conservation and recognize the oldest trees’ unique role in carbon storage. 

It would be the first nationwide amendment to forest plans in the 118-year history of the Forest Service, where local rangers typically have the final word on how to balance forests’ role in watershed, wildlife and recreation with the agency’s mandate to maintain a “sustained yield” of timber.

“Old-growth forests are a vital part of our ecosystems and a special cultural resource,” Vilsack said in a statement accompanying the notice. “This clear direction will help our old-growth forests thrive across our shared landscape.”

But initial responses from both environmentalists and the logging industry suggest that the plan does not resolve the conflict between the Forest Service’s traditional role of administering the “products and services” of public lands—especially timber—and the challenges the agency now faces due to climate change. National Forests hold most of the nation’s mature and old-growth trees, and therefore, its greatest stores of forest carbon, but that resource is under growing pressure from wildfire, insects, disease and other impacts of warming.

Views could not be more polarized on how the National Forests should be managed in light of the growing risks.

National and local environmental advocates have been urging the Biden administration to adopt a new policy emphasizing preservation in National Forests, treating them as a strategic reserve of carbon. Although they praised the old-growth proposal as an “historic” step, they want to see protection extended to “mature” forests, those dominated by trees roughly 80 to 150 years old, which are a far larger portion of the National Forests. As old-growth trees are lost, which can happen rapidly due to megafires and other assaults, they argue that the Forest Service should be ensuring there are fully developed trees on the landscape to take their place...

The Biden administration’s new proposal seeks to take a middle ground, establishing protection for the oldest trees under its stewardship while allowing exceptions to reduce fuel hazards, protect public health and safety and other purposes. And the Forest Service is seeking public comment through Feb. 2 (Note: That's the official page for the proposed rule, but for some reason you can only submit comments through the forest service website - so do that here!) on the proposal as well as other steps needed to manage its lands to retain mature and old-growth forests over time, particularly in light of climate change.

If the Forest Service were to put in place nationwide protections for both mature and old-growth forests, it would close off most of the National Forests to logging. In an inventory concluded earlier this year in response to a Biden executive order, the Forest Service found that 24.7 million acres, or 17 percent, of its 144.3 million acres of forest are old-growth, while 68.1 million acres, or 47 percent, are mature."

Note: This proposed rule is current up for public comment! If you're in the US, you can go here to file an official comment telling the Biden administration how much you support this proposal - and that you think it should be extended to mature forests!

Official public comments really DO matter. You can leave a comment on this proposal here until February 2nd.

just now realized that kristen started off fantasy high choosing the path of doubt & uncertainty by choosing to go with the bad kids. for unrelated reasons i need to lie down forever.

#fantasy high #dimension 20 #kristen applebees #the bad kids #fantasy high junior year #fhjy #feel like one of those ms paint type stick drawings covered in blood & tears. THE BAD KIDS 😭😭😭 #kristen was offered the certain path and chose to walk through the trees GODDDD #maybe fantasy high is just choosing to walk through the forest with your friends. for your friends. #i fr need to go to bed but like. oh my god. #‘​keep going’ or whatever #sorry for being dramatic i listened to televangelism by ethel cain when thinking about kristen & lucy & the bad kids so. yea

Every time I think about the Tree of Feelings I can't help but be a little underwhelmed at how the most popular depictions of it is just. the tree. on a hill. surrounded by miles of nothing but grass and maybe a few houses in the distance.

Yeah, no thanks. I'll just go with my own interpretation on this one

#dreamtale #utmv #undertale au #dryeart #my art #fanart #not that it's bad #but for a sacred tree that needs constant protection... #that damn tree can be spotted from miles away #with no natural barriers #like. come on. #something like a forest or valley would make so much more sense. hell even a mountain would work better #and idk maybe even have a magical forest surrounding and also acting as a barrier for the important magical tree #instead of just. relying solely on a couple of prepubescent children #dream sans #nightmare sans #they're the little silhouettes under the tree it fucking counts #digital art #digital painting #environment art #concept art

Such a beautiful picture

#this like those oil paintings of ethereal girls in magic forests #inspirational

I really enjoy how the surviving adults have, more or less consciously, surrounded themselves with the Wilderness.

Taissa “I really just want to focus on our collective future” Turner needs to look behind her

Travis basically still lived in the cabin

Shauna has a painting which looks exactly like where they were stranded (in her dining room...)

Van still lives in the attic

Lottie is something else entirely, living in wooden trailers next to mountains and a lake, surrounded by the symbol

+ Misty doesn’t surround herself with reminders of the Wilderness itself, but she has a picture of the team next to her front door, which fits her perfectly

#yellowjackets #taissa turner #van palmer #misty quigley #lottie matthews #shauna shipman #travis martinez #natalie doesn't really live anywhere it's all in her brain #for misty there's caligula but there weren't these kinds of birds in their forest? #it's more like... misty being misty #needed a living being to depend on her
