American Forests, a non-profit organization dedicated to the protection and restoration of forests, recently announced a groundbreaking $20 million agreement with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service. This keystone agreement will help the agency organize and rapidly scale climate-adapted reforestation across millions of burned and degraded acres over the next five years.
This agreement is a major step forward in the fight against climate change and forest degradation. It will help restore the health of forests, improve air and water quality, and create jobs and economic opportunities for rural communities.
American Forests is committed to protecting and restoring forests and wildlands across the country. The organization has been working for decades to restore forests that have been damaged by wildfire, logging, and other human activities. With this new agreement, American Forests will be able to expand its efforts and help the USDA Forest Service in its mission to protect and restore forests.
The agreement will provide funding for the USDA Forest Service to develop and implement climate-adapted reforestation strategies and projects. This includes planting trees, restoring riparian areas, and restoring habitats for threatened and endangered species. It will also fund research and development of new reforestation techniques and technologies.
American Forests will also use the funds to support the development of a national network of forest restoration professionals. This network will provide training and technical assistance to local communities and organizations that are working to restore forests.
American Forests is confident that this agreement will have a significant impact on the health of our nation’s forests. The organization believes that this agreement will not only help restore forests, but also create jobs and economic opportunities for rural communities.
