San Jose Library’s Earth Day Presentation: Clear-Cutting in the Sierra Nevada Forest is Saturday April 18 from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM.

ForestEthics representative, Joshua Buswell-Charkow, will talk about how the use of destructive and outdated logging practices in the Sierra Nevada forests threatens our state’s natural resources. California’s forests help to provide 60% of the state’s drinking water. They are home to half of the state’s plants and animals. Learn what you can do to ensure the use of environmentally sound logging practices that preserve the legacy of our forests for future generations.
