Quotes
The forest is a peculiar organism of unlimited kindness and benevolence that makes no demands for its sustenance and extends generously the products of its life and activity; it affords protection to all beings.
It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men's hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that emanation from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.
The forest is an integral part of our culture, our heritage and our economy. Logging and other activities in our forested watersheds have impacted our fish and wildlife populations, our water quality and our recreational opportunities.
