The Sierra Nevada is a natural treasure with wonders such as Lake Tahoe, Yosemite, and the Giant Sequoia Trees. Unfortunately, the forests of the Sierra are being clearcut by logging giant Sierra Pacific Industries (SPI). This destructive activity threatens endangered wildlife, dumps sediment into streams and lakes and even increases fire risks for local communities. Come to a presentation by the folks from Forest Ethics (http://www.forestethics.org) to learn more about this issue, about where this wood is going, and what you can do to help stop it.
