The Green Mountain National Forest's Telephone Gap project, labeled one of the ten worst logging projects for the climate on federal lands across the US, is set to propose nearly 11,000-acres of logging in mature forests along the spine of Vermont. In the face of climate change and extinction, we know our public forests are #WorthMoreStanding. On November 12th, stand in solidarity with the Climate Forests National Week of Action as we make a bold statement to elected officials and Forest Service staff that we want permanent protections for mature and old-growth forests on federal public lands, including Telephone Gap.
