The Pacific Northwest Forest Climate Alliance is a network of organizations and activists working at the intersection of Forest Defense and Climate Justice.[1]
Guiding Principles
1) Forest Defense is Community Defense: We work together in defense of the Pacific Northwest communities and ecosystems, as we recognize their health and wellbeing are fundamentally interconnected.
2) Forest Defense is Climate Defense: Our work is driven by the important role forests play in mitigating the climate crisis, and creating climate resilient communities.
3) Solidarity with Frontline Communities: We support action taken by Black Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC) and other frontline communities to combat the climate crisis. We take guidance from traditional land stewards to inform our advocacy.
4) Transformation, not Reformation: We work to transform, not reform the imbalanced and unfair systems that drive the destruction of forests and forest-dependent communities — both human and non-human. This will require a shift away from industrial logging.
5) Embrace Real Solutions: We reject unproven and dangerous practices that distract and misdirect resources from real solutions. Effective and enduring solutions will come from a fundamental transformation away from the extractive systems that have brought us to disaster.
6) End Corporate Exploitation: We must end ecologically destructive logging, restore landscapes and protect ecologically significant places.
7) Advance a Just Transition: We support workers and rural communities in a just transition towards a life-affirming economy.
