Citizen Petition Drive Launched to Reinstate Forest Protections
Aims to stop federal plans favoring logging, deforestation



October 11, 2005 (Washington, DC) - Seventy-five environmental groups around the country announced today that they will mount a petition campaign to reinstate the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule overturned by the Bush administration in one of its most controversial environmental decisions.

The announcement comes as pressure mounts on the federal government to reinstate the protections that limited logging, mining and other destructive activities on nearly 60 million acres of wild national forests.

3. Thank you

Enough forest rape. We have been witness this year to the gutting of environmental protections by the bastard who did the same to Texas when he was inflicted on that state as Governor.

Allan Ford of Umqua Bank has made a great deal of money destroying rare old growth in the Umqua river basin. Bush does reward timber moguls if they helped greatly in winning his 2004 campaign.

We need to protect the road less areas and not cut ANY old growth.

All living things have the right to live for the value they have undo themselves. No plant or animal species was put here by the Goddess merely to make any hairless human primate a dime. Earth First!
