We must appeal to those in charge of the Forest Service, Mike Dombeck(Chief of the USFS), Jim Lyons (Assistant Secretary of Agriculture), Al Gore(Vice-President) and our Congresspersons to bring Sequoia Forest in line with existing laws and Forest Service policies. This magnificent forest deserves nothing less. Indeed this forest should be a prototype for how all National Forests should be managed.

What you can do about DFPZ's: Write or call the people below and express concern that Sequoia National Forest is not in compliance with existing federal law and is placing the forest that harbors more than half of the earth's Giant Sequoias in grave jeopardy. Tell them that you are opposed to the DFPZ strategy as planned on Sequoia National Forest, that it will not help the forest, not suppress fire, not accomplish any of his stated goals relating to forest health. Urge them to use their influence to pressure Sequoia Forest to withdraw DFPZ and similar plans; if Sequoia Forest wishes to proceed with DFPZ's they should write a forestwide EIS with full public input.
