Dear Internet Friend,
Many of you know us from discussion groups as Dan and Ann on WebTV and as Webmasters of the Dapro Workshop and the Kit and Kaboodle Home Page.
On May 4th President Bush will be making a decision that brings our Forest Conservation Policy under attack. We thought you might be interested in the Heritage Forests Campaign to save our last unspoiled National Forests from mining, drilling, logging and road building. Please send a FREE FAX directly to President Bush! by clicking on the link below.
What's At Stake!
URGENT - Forest Conservation Policy Under Attack!
WHAT'S AT STAKE?
The U.S. Forest Service issued the popular forest conservation plan, known as the Roadless Area Conservation Rule, earlier this year. It was the result of the most extensive public participation in a rulemaking process IN HISTORY, including more than 600 public meetings, 1.6 million public comments, and two years of public debate.
This forest conservation policy would protect the last 58 million acres of unspoiled National Forest lands from logging, mining, and drilling, which are already allowed on most National Forest lands.
Until recently, the U.S. Forest Service had been functioning largely as the servant of the timber industry, carrying out a program of taxpayer-subsidized logging. Protecting the last 30% of our National Forest lands is an enlightened policy that recognizes that our forests have multiple uses, and that we have a responsibility to conserve these precious resources for future generations.
However, the Bush Administration - backed by special interests and large corporate contributors - has repeatedly refused to support this popular forest conservation policy, signaling its intent to allow logging, mining, and drilling in our last majestic untouched forests.
With a White House decision imminent, will you PLEASE SEND A MESSAGE RIGHT NOW to President Bush urging him to protect America's last unspoiled National Forest lands from logging, mining and drilling?
Because once these forests are gone, they're gone forever.
Thank You,
The Heritage Forests Campaign
Cries of anquish and sorrow come from forest animals and natures other inhabitants as logging and other commerical operations are destroying our Heritage Forests.
THESE ARE CRYS THAT WON'T GO AWAY. As you read this, logging trucks are tearing through our National Forests, clearcutting and destroying our last ancient and wild forests.
These beautiful Heritage Forests, which are home to the timberwolves and eagles, could be no more if we don't act today. Please click on the banner above and lend your support. Thank You.
