The U.S. Forest Service recently started a process that could restrict #logging of old-growth forests and #trees in all 128 #NationalForests. This nationwide forest plan amendment will protect some climate-saving trees, but it leaves open #loopholes that could allow logging of many others. The agency's proposal also lacks safeguards for #MatureTrees, which it defines as "the stage of forest development immediately before old growth."

With so few old-growth forests left standing, the #ForestService should not sell what remains. The trees of today and tomorrow need real #protection.
