In Mendocino County, an Indigenous tribe added its voice to a long war over logging in a state forest — and could sign a historic agreement to co-manage the land.
But there’s an issue. The tribe and state don't agree on the forest's future. My latest: lat.ms/3h4H15t

For 70 years, a Mendocino forest has been used to promote logging. Is it time to change its mission? @MaryCallahanB investigates:

Should California be logging 100-year-old redwoods any more?
And
Is a state forest set aside 70 years ago for timber experimentation better suited now purely for carbon capture & wildlife habitat?

Fantastic news from @savetheredwoods and the InterTribal Sinkyone Wilderness Council! The return of Tc’ih-Léh-Dûñ or “Fish Run Place” is an important step to righting the wrongs of the past. #LandBack #redwood #mendocino

Forest fires release less than 10% of the carbon stored in the forest during a big fire. When people log forests to make wood products about 70% of the carbon is released into the atmosphere. youtu.be/IrmqsujnDG8 youtu.be/IrmqsujnDG8
The best way to reduce fire risk in forest communities is to thin out smaller material near homes followed by controled burning. youtu.be/Oujhs394hHo youtu.be/Oujhs394hHo

When forests are logged and replaced with tree plantations, the result is hotter, more intense fires, leaving communities more volunerable. youtu.be/HMteQ1a4a-k youtu.be/HMteQ1a4a-k
