America’s forests are disappearing at an alarming rate. Catastrophic wildfires, pests and diseases are decimating forest land across the country. Without stronger conservation policies and programs, we could lose even more.

That’s a problem. Why? Because, without healthy forests, the clean air and water, habitat, recreation and timber they provide is at risk. Their loss would be a massive blow to the economy and a setback in the fight to store carbon and keep climate change in check.

That’s why The Nature Conservancy is calling on Congress to support strong forest conservation programs in the upcoming Farm Bill.

The Farm Bill is the largest bipartisan investment in the voluntary and successful conservation, restoration and management of America’s private lands, including public and private forests. Add your name to tell Congress you’re counting on it to support vital conservation funding for America’s forests.

This action will be delivered to:

Support Conservation Programs in the Farm Bill

I stand in firm support of strong funding for vital conservation priorities in the Farm Bill, including programs to maintain healthy forests. The Farm Bill is the nation’s largest investment in the voluntary and successful conservation, restoration and management of America’s private lands.

Conservation practices supported by the Farm Bill result in cleaner water, increased carbon sequestration, healthier soils, enhanced wildlife habitat, more outdoor recreation opportunities and increased flood control.

I urge you to champion and vote for strong conservation funding as Congress considers the Farm Bill in the coming months.
