Show Notes
The Bureau of Land Managements proposed changes to resource plans for Oregons forests have sparked controversy. The plan aims to increase timber harvests, potentially threatening habitats for protected species. Critics warn of a return to intense clear-cutting that nearly led to the extinction of the northern spotted owl and marbled murrelet. With lawmakers and environmental groups pushing back, the Bureau must navigate a delicate balance between timber needs and species protections.
