Hi John,

Grizzly bears are drawn to forests because they use the tree cover to sleep at night and stay cool in the hottest parts of the day.

But our forests and the species that live there are now at risk. With the stroke of a pen, Trump launched one of his most vicious attacks yet on the natural world — an edict to ramp up logging on our federal forests. The Center for Biological Diversity just sued to stop it.

Trump's executive order would bring in chainsaws to nearly one-third of forested lands in the United States.

This forest liquidation plan — to convert public lands into timber factories — could harm up to 400 protected species, from grizzly bears to salmon. Habitat for spotted owls could be destroyed.

Wildlife on the brink need these forests to survive. That's why Trump had to do an end run around the laws that protect them.

His order instructs the U.S. Forest Service and Interior Department to rely on "emergency" provisions to ignore the Endangered Species Act.

Rushing to cut down places like the Flathead National Forest in Montana or the Sawtooth National Forest in Idaho without input or environmental review is a theft of public lands from us, the American people, as well as future generations and wildlife.

In April the Center took legal action to expose how the administration came up with this destructive plan. To no one's surprise, it doesn't want the public to know its secrets — so we went to court. The public has a right to know what the administration has in store for the wild.

Trump's forest destruction will be a disaster for endangered wildlife and the planet if we don't stop it.

Please help now with a matched gift to the Future for the Wild Fund.
