Forests. Climate. Justice. Uniting with the people of the South against destructive logging
About us
For over 25 years, Dogwood Alliance has mobilized diverse voices to protect Southern forests and communities from destructive industrial logging. Through community and grassroots action, holding corporate and government decision-makers accountable, and catalyzing large-scale conservation, Dogwood advances a twenty-first century society that values standing forests for the many ways they sustain life. The South is the world’s number one source of lumber, paper and wood pellets. Our Southern forests are being destroyed by the large-scale production of these products. Industrial logging in the Southern US accounts for our forests being four times more logged than the rainforests of Brazil. In a time when we are championing forest conservation in other countries, we are ignoring deforestation in our own backyard.

Recently, peaceful protesters were met with aggressive actions from authorities, resulting in over 20 arrests, the seizure of personal tech, and the impoundment of vehicles. These brave individuals were advocating for our forests and communities, yet their efforts were met with force. Despite this setback, we are not giving up. The fight against environmental destruction continues, and they need your support to recover and move forward. 🌍 Donate today to help protect our forests and communities. https://lnkd.in/e4sVVmWv
