The cheery numbers the @forestservice has been selling for durable wood products never did add up. The figure still underestimates the release of #carbon by #logging. For example what about the helicopter fuel when they do helicopter #clearcuts like in the #UpperCheatRiver #WV

The @forestservice announces progress toward recognizing the values of our ecologically mature and #OldGrowth #forest. Thank you @WHCEQ @POTUS and @USDA for working to make this happen. A step toward protecting those values in the #UpperCheatRiver area.

A web site about the #UpperCheatRiver Project of the #ForestService . Gives the details and highlights the issues of #Climate change that impact #Flooding and loss of #Biodiversity. The project is a threat to #ClimateForests that are #WorthMoreStanding.

Before the #clearcuts in the #UpperCheatRiver and Hogback projects of the @forestservice .

Thanks to the article linked by @AnthonyPWalker at https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/ac8694 we see that the Central #Appalachians are a hotspot of above-ground #carbon storage worldwide. Why is the @forestservice attacking our #ClimateForests with projects like the #UpperCheatRiver #clearcuts?

Way to go #ClimateForests! Protect the #UpperCheatRiver project area and other #NationalForet #OldGrowth

Last week @ellenruth and @LisaKFrank1 joined partners from across the country to visit 40+ Congressional offices to talk about why it's so important to protect our mature and old-growth #forests. These forests are critical for climate, wildlife & clean water. #ClimateForests

Thank you for highlighting the #UpperCheatRiver project that is #clearcutting #OldGrowth #forest, just like other #ForestService projects in the East. e.g. the #TelephoneGap project. #WorthMoreStanding

This especially #climate destroying method of #clearcutting our #ClimateForests is proposed by the F.S. for the mature and #OldGrowth #forest in the #UpperCheatRiver project.

The Forest Service is close to a decision on the #UpperCheatRiver Project of the #Monongahela #NationalForest to #clearcut 3,500 acres of our oldest trees on steep slopes to create "Early Successional" habitat. The cut includes oaks and sugar maples more than 200 years old.

Help protect #OldGrowth #ClimateForests. email Monongahela National Forest Supervisor <shawn.cochran@usda.gov> and ask that #clearcuts on steep #forest slopes be dropped from the #UpperCheatRiver project
