Representatives from the National Alliance of Forest Owners were in Washington, D.C. this week to discuss renewable energy and climate change with Congressional leaders.

National Wildlife Federation and National Alliance of Forest Owners endorse the Forest Climate Working Group policy platform, which says that U.S. forests must play a central role in our national climate strategy. America’s forests and forest products annually sequester and store 10 percent of all U.S. carbon emissions.  Healthy forests provide an essential contribution toward helping confront the climate crisis.
