Conserving Forests Through Viable Markets

NAFO joined forces with other forest owners, conservationists, resource professionals, and environmental organizations to call for the development of an actionable national policy platform to:

  • Strengthen existing and emerging markets for goods and services working forests can provide.
  • Support and align public and private investments, partnerships and policies to maintain working forest landscapes.
  • Align government policies to support the long-term viability of working forests.

The following organizations are members of the coalition:

American Forest Foundation
Environmental Defense Fund
Forest Landowners Association
National Alliance of Forest Owners
National Association of State Foresters
National Wildlife Federation
Pacific Forest Trust
Society of American Foresters
The Conservation Fund
The Nature Conservancy
Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership
U.S. Endowment for Forestry and Communities, Inc.

Landowners will not be required to get federal permits to build logging roads. More
