Once, this forest on California\u2019s North Coast was replete with the ancient behemoths that can live beyond 2,000 years. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/california-relocation-journal.com\/?p=517\">Eco-friendly toilet papers are trendy, but which you choose matters<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Only a fraction are left now, depleted by a logging company before the state acquired the forest in the 1940s. <\/p>\n<p>This is unique public land, Jackson  Demonstration State Forest, spanning 50,000 acres. Trees are plentiful here, but they might not live a millennium. California\u2019s 14 demonstration forests are required to produce and sell timber to show \u2014 or \u201cdemonstrate\u201d \u2014 sustainable practices. Money from logging \u2014 roughly $8.5 million a year \u2014 pays for management of the forests by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, or Cal Fire. <\/p>\n<p>Daniel\u2019s tribe, the Coyote Valley Band of Pomo Indians, has pushed to rein in the cutting \u2014 spearheaded by his late great-grandmother, Priscilla Hunter. They\u2019re part of a diverse coalition that includes environmental activists, local politicians and other tribes. <\/p>\n<p>Now they may finally get their wish. Assemblymember Chris Rogers (D-Santa Rosa) has introduced a bill that would nix the forests\u2019 logging mandate, instead prioritizing values  such as carbon storage, wildfire resilience and biodiversity. <\/p>\n<p>The bill represents the latest chapter in a region legendary for fierce battles over logging, and it marks an uncommon alliance between tribes and the environmental movement. <\/p>\n<p>Under Assembly Bill 2494, there could still be logging, but it would have to support those new principles, and the forests would be funded differently. <\/p>\n<p> And it proposes another significant change. It would pave the way for giving tribes a say in managing the lands for the first time since they were forcibly evicted more than a century ago, and for integrating Indigenous knowledge \u2014 like cultural burning \u2014 into the forests. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s what we dreamed of,\u201d said Polly Girvin, Hunter\u2019s former partner and a retired lawyer focused on Native American issues. \u201cAnd to have it come true? I\u2019m used to movements that sometimes take 30 years in Indian Country to get to the justice you\u2019re seeking.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some backers say the bill offers a new economic path forward for communities behind the so-called redwood curtain. With the decline of logging and cannabis, they see tourism driven by ultramarathons, mushroom foraging and other outdoor activities as a financial savior. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we had an increase of 10% of visitors coming to our county because of recreational opportunities, that would more than surpass all of the timber tax in our county,\u201d Mendocino County Supervisor Ted Williams said, projecting an increase in money from a lodging tax. <\/p>\n<p>But the push to reshape forest management is fiercely opposed by loggers and mill owners, who say their work is sustainable and provides blue-collar jobs in a region where they\u2019ve dwindled. Already California imports most of its wood from Oregon, Washington and Canada. <\/p>\n<p> \u201cCalifornia has the most rules and regulations of anywhere in the world so all they\u2019re doing is exporting the environmental impact to somewhere else, still using the product,\u201d said Myles Anderson, owner of a logging company in Fort Bragg founded by his grandfather. \u201cIt\u2019s pretty disgusting, really.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Anderson believes the bill will greatly reduce logging, even stop it altogether. In his office, with photos of him and his father at a logging site decades ago, he points out it\u2019s sponsored by the Environmental Protection Information Center. Why else would they and other environmental groups \u201csupport it if they didn\u2019t see the same thing that I\u2019m seeing?\u201d <\/p>\n<h2>A new but old fight<\/h2>\n<p>About five years ago, community members caught wind of plans to chop down towering redwoods within Jackson, near the coastal town of Caspar. Priscilla Hunter would come out to the forest \u201cand could hear them crying \u2014 it was our ancestors,\u201d said her daughter Melinda Hunter, the tribe\u2019s vice chairwoman. \u201cThen she had to protect [the trees].\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Environmental activists and Native Americans, not historically allies in the region, joined forces to fight it. \u201cForest defenders\u201d camped out high in the canopy and blocked logging equipment with their bodies. Some were arrested.<\/p>\n<p>The uprising harked back to the 1980s and 1990s, when iconic environmentalist Judi Bari led Earth First! campaigns against logging in the region. Many of the old tree sitters \u2014 white-haired and brimming with stories of Bari \u2014 have come out of the woodwork for the latest battle. <\/p>\n<p>For them, it was a win. Cal Fire paused new timber sales and, citing public safety, halted some that were underway \u2014 including one expected to generate millions of dollars for Myles Anderson\u2019s logging company. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/california-relocation-journal.com\/?p=515\">Mezcal\u2019s popularity is booming in the U.S. That comes with a growing cost to Mexico<\/a><\/p>\n<p> \u201cWe were left with nothing,\u201d Anderson said.<\/p>\n<p>Then, last year, Cal Fire approved the first harvest plan since that hiatus. It riled up the sizable, ecologically minded community. <\/p>\n<p>Jessica Curl, 47, remembers growing up nearby \u201cin a terrain of trunks\u201d as trucks carried out logs. Now the redwoods are regrowing, \u201cgorgeous\u201d and gobbling carbon, she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re so lucky to live in an area where we have this amazing climate-change mitigation tool, that if we would just leave it alone would do this amazing work that we\u2019re trying to think of all these cool, inventive things to do.\u201d <\/p>\n<h2>Tears of grief, resolve<\/h2>\n<p>A group of \u201cspirit runners\u201d \u2014 a Native American tradition of bringing prayer \u2014 sprinted through the heart of Jackson forest as rain poured through the canopy. The mid-April event marked activists\u2019 first major gathering since protests wound down in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>Attendees gathered in a circle to wait for them. Misty Cook, of the Sherwood Valley Band of Pomo Indians, read a statement as eyes misted all around:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll the living things around us, they miss us. They miss the language. They miss our touch, our hands, touching all of the things \u2014 the water, the plants. They miss the songs. They miss the beat of our footsteps and our voices, and they miss the children\u2019s laughter and play, which was so important. They want us to gather them, to use them and to share them. Otherwise they will get sick and possibly die.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cal Fire launched a tribal advisory council to bring Indigenous perspective into Jackson. But some local tribes say it\u2019s not enough because they lack decision-making power. <\/p>\n<p>When the runners arrived, the circle absorbed them. Then they continued on to the site of a controversial proposed harvest, Camp Eight. They wrapped a bandana that belonged to Priscilla Hunter around a small tree \u2014 a quiet, somber act where she took her last stand. Runners took turns embracing the trunk. <\/p>\n<h2>Redwoods at the Capitol<\/h2>\n<p>In  March, Rogers\u2019 bill cleared a committee and is now in the Assembly Appropriations Committee\u2019s suspense file. A hearing is set for  Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Funding is a major point of contention. Environmentalists say funding these forests with timber operations incentivizes cutting bigger trees. Cal Fire maintains decisions are driven by forest health, not industry demand.<\/p>\n<p>AB 2494 would fund the forests through a tax on lumber and engineered wood products. The shift could create \u201c[o]ngoing state costs and cost pressures of an unknown but potentially significant amount, possibly in the low millions of dollars annually,\u201d according to a legislative analysis.<\/p>\n<p>The California Forestry Assn., a timber industry trade group, says the idea is a nonstarter.<\/p>\n<p>Cal Fire declined to comment on pending legislation but Kevin Conway, the agency\u2019s staff chief for resource protection and improvement, said its nearly 80-year history managing Jackson reflects \u201ccare and attention.\u201d Since the state acquired the forest, \u201cwe have more trees on the landscape, more habitat and those trees are trending larger,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>For the tribes who have rallied and prayed, a burning question is whether the land will again reflect their vision, or remain shaped by decisions made by others.<\/p>\n<p>Buffie Campbell, executive director of the InterTribal Sinkyone Wilderness Council \u2014 co-founded by Priscilla Hunter and one of the groups supporting the bill \u2014 said young people wouldn\u2019t be able to fathom the significance of the legislation passing.  Maybe that\u2019s a good thing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMaybe they don\u2019t need to know about all the fighting that we have to do before they get to go out and enjoy and be tribal guardians stewarding their land.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/california-relocation-journal.com\/?p=513\">Tennessee lawmakers pass U.S. House map carving up majority-Black district in Memphis<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A fight over California\u2019s redwood forests pits tribes and environmentalists against loggers as lawmakers consider a bill to reimagine the state\u2019s 14 demonstration forests.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":371,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-518","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-climate"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
