Show Notes
Alaskas coastal forests suffered severe damage from the twentieth-century timber industry, with logging operations wiping out hundreds of thousands of acres and leaving toxic waste sites. The destruction harmed wildlife, habitats, and local communities. Today, Alaskas intact coastal temperate rainforest is under threat as the Trump administration seeks to open nine million acres in Tongass National Forest to logging, road building, and mining. Alaskans and nationwide advocates are fighting to preserve whats left and prevent a return to the era of unchecked development.
