I know I’ve used this one before, but it bears repeating now more than ever. While we saved our public lands from sale, we did not save them from being raped by taking their trees, their minerals, and their oil and gas reserves. We need to continue our fight to prevent their destruction. We need to support and protect our public lands for our children and grandchildren by electing people to Congress that CARE about our forests, our immigrants, our poor, our children, our veterans, our disabled, who care about US, ALL of us.

Here are some organizations one can donate to that are local and care about our public lands:

Big Sur Land Trust: https://bigsurlandtrust.org/

Keep Big Sur Wild: https://www.keepbigsurwild.org/

Los Padres Forest Watch: https://forestwatch.org/

Ventana Wilderness Alliance: https://www.ventanawild.org/

Don’t give up. It takes US — all of us to fight this attack on our public lands and to our democracy. Don’t despair. We have hope and we are not done!
