Webinar Announcement – “Who Speaks for the Trees?”

From Friends of Blackwater

July 29th, 2020 at 6 p.m. Eastern

The world’s oldest and most diverse forests — in the USA, and around the world — are being cut down faster every year. We are losing our planet’s most valuable natural protection against runaway global warming — and at an alarming rate! We must protect and preserve the forest ecosystems that keep our planet and atmosphere in balance.

On Wednesday, July 29th, at 6 PM ET, you are invited to attend an hour-long free webinar with leading experts who will present the latest science showing why diverse, intact forests play a vital global role as natural climate solutions.
