AppVoices campaigns for better forest management practices,
working with private, non-industrial landowners who hold the
majority of forested lands in the Appalachians. Due to a lack
of accessible information, these landowners frequently obtain
advice from industry foresters who are more interested in what
is best for the pulp and paper interests than what is best for
the landowner and their forest. AppVoices strives to inform
landowners about profitable, ecologically sensitive timbering
practices, and low-impact forestry (LIF). |
