Tell the U.S. Forest Service to protect Colorado's roadless forests
Tell the U.S. Forest Service to protect Colorado's roadless forestsColorado’s roadless forests are worth more wild! Our roadless forests safeguard our watersheds, protect wildlife habitat, and offer unmatched recreation opportunities such as hunting, fishing, camping, and hiking. Unfortunately,
the logging and mining industry are working to weaken current protections,
opening our last wild forests to development. The U.S. Forest Service is
considering adopting a proposal that would allow increased road building for
logging and mining activities as well as more logging throughout the
backcountry. Please take a moment and use the form below to email the U.S. Forest Service and tell them not to roll back the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule and the strong protections it guarantees for Colorado’s roadless forests.
