Activists are increasingly frustrated with President Joe Biden’s unwillingness to exert pressure on the US Forest Service to slow or stop the logging of old-growth forests, HuffPost reported on Thursday.
On Earth Day last year, Mr Biden signed an executive order aimed at protecting and restoring old-growth forests — ordering the Bureau of Land Management and the Forest Service to inventory all the old-growth and mature forests on federal land and design policy and “institutionalise climate-smart management and conservation strategies.”
