Conservation sequesters Carbon and deforestation is a major cause of climate change, Cascadia Wildlands aims to conserve wild spaces. According to their website they “protect the most threatened wild places and wildlife from Oregon to Alaska. They work in the Cascadia bioregion (within the US) where threats to wild places and wildlife are highest. The Cascadia bioregion is the forest zone extending along the Pacific Coast from northern California to south-central Alaska. They envision vast old-growth forests, rivers full of wild salmon, wolves howling in the backcountry, and vibrant communities sustained by the unique landscapes of the Cascadia bioregion. Cascadia Wildlands educates, agitates, and inspires a movement to protect and restore Cascadia’s wild ecosystems. Cascadia Wildlands began in 1998 when a small group of passionate students and community members decided to take action against rampant clear cutting in Oregon’s Cascades and Coast Range. Since then Cascadia Wildlands has grown into a regional conservation leader. Though grassroots organizing, policy work and litigation.”
